Two 15-year-old schoolboys have been arrested after another pupil was injured at a school.

The injured boy, also 15, was treated by paramedics at Worle Community School in Weston-super-Mare after police were called at about 13:45 GMT.

Avon and Somerset Police said he was taken to hospital but was not thought to be in a life-threatening condition.
