It will remain closed all week.

A spokesman for the council said: "The school and nursery are open, the Family Support Centre has flooded and will be closed all week. All groups have been cancelled until further notice."

Westgate Primary School in Otley has been closed all day due to a 'significant power failure.'

The failure has affected lighting and heating.
