We are aware that schools across Scotland received threatening communications this morning and can confirm that this included all Fife schools.

Police Scotland confirmed these are being treated as hoaxes.

Schools are following established procedures and liaising with Police Scotland and have undertaken a physical sweep of their buildings.

Schools have sent an update directly to parents and carers, however we're aware that these messages may take longer to arrive due to the volume being issued across Scotland.

We understand that reports of this nature can understandably cause concern for children, families and staff. The safety of pupils and staff remains our priority.

We will continue to liaise closely with Police Scotland regarding this and any further threats or security concerns affecting Fife schools.
