Children evacuated from Livingston high school after 'military device' found
Children and staff were evacuated from a Livingston secondary school today after the discovery of a suspected military artefact.
In a message posted on social media today, West Lothian Council said: "All parents/carers whose children attend Inveralmond Community High School should have received this message via GroupCall but pupils have been moved from ICHS following the discovery of a suspected military artefact.
"As a precautionary measure, and until the device is examined by specialist officers, pupils & staff have been moved to nearby schools and lunch will be provided.
"We anticipate that pupils can return to ICHS later this afternoon and pick up/end of school day arrangements will be unaffected. A further update will be provided later this afternoon."
