Three schools in the West Midlands have been evacuated after receiving bomb scare calls.
Police said all pupils at Holly Lodge, Oldbury Academy and Bristnall Hall in Sandwell were safe and the council stressed there was “no reason to panic”.
The schools received the threats between 09:00 GMT and 09:30.
Leasowes High School in Halesowen was also affected, West Midlands Police said.
Sandwell Council leader Darren Cooper said: “We’ve had a bomb alert in three Sandwell schools… we don’t know at this stage where the tip came from.”
There was no suggestion of any other threat to other schools in Sandwell, the authority said.
A parent called Steve, who has a son and daughter at Oldbury Academy, told BBC WM the children were told by their teachers to evacuate.
“They did not know what was going on, they had no information off the teachers,” he said.
“They were just scared, because they didn’t know exactly what was going on.”
Two Oldbury Academy pupils told BBC WM that pupils and teachers were “panicking”.
A 15-year-old student added: “A few people were running down the street, running away from the school,”
