Home learning has been sent to families of the affected pupils, the school said.

The newsletter to parents said: "This week we have had to collapse our Y1/2 bubble due to one confirmed case.

"We are very fortunate that we have not had to close a bubble due to a confirmed case prior to this, we are one of the few schools in Leeds that has remained fully open until now.

"Home learning has been emailed to these families.

"Thank you for your support."
