Pupils at a secondary school have been sent home early today following a chemical leak.
The Grange Academy in Bushey says firefighters “required” all staff and students to leave as a “precautionary measure”. Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue Service has confirmed it was called at 8.30am and crews in hazmat suits found a container in a science laboratory leaking nitric acid, which was affecting other chemicals in the store.
The lab was evacuated before a decision was made between the school and fire service to clear the whole school.Fire engines from Watford and Garston attended along with a specialist chemical decontamination unit from Hemel Hempstead fire station.
