Default School will be safer now




Triangle-shaped flapjacks have been banned from an Essex school on
safety grounds.

Oat bars can only be served in squares or rectangles by canteen staff at
Castle View School in Canvey Island after a child suffered a minor eye
injury in a fight.

A Year Seven pupil was hit in the eye by a triangle flapjack last
Wednesday after it was thrown across the dinner hall, claims The Sun.

That particular shape of flapjack has now been banned by the headteacher.

A school insider called the decision "ludicrous", adding: "It's very
silly. You'd have thought teachers would have more pressing concerns
than the shape of snacks and puddings."
