A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police stated, “We are working closely with the London Fire Brigade to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the fire. We urge anyone with information to come forward.”
The London Fire Brigade has advised residents living near the affected area to keep their windows and doors closed as a precaution due to smoke. The fire, which has caused significant damage to the school, continues to be monitored as the investigation unfolds.
