A council spokesman said: "We are shocked at the content of the video and are working with the school community to deal with this particular incident.

"We would encourage any parent who has a concern to contact the school."

He added: "We would like to reassure parents and the wider public that when instances such as this one occur, school staff take action to address the situation."
