Another school has been struck down by an outbreak of sickness.

About 60 children at Southwater Junior School near Horsham have been off ill with either swine flu, suspected swine flu or similar viruses or bugs.

At the peak of the outbreak on Monday, about 80 children at the school were absent.

There have been two confirmed cases of swine flu so far.

The children are being treated with antivirals and are recovering at home.

The school in Worthing Road, which has 414 students in Years 3 to 6, is continuing as normal.

Another 200 students at Willingdon Secondary School in Eastbourne are also still off after more than 20 students came down with swine flu.

Staff insist it is business as usual and there are no plans to close.
