Police were called to a Mackay high school after an out of control student sparked safety concerns for other students and teachers.
A Queensland Police spokesman said police attended Mackay North State High School about 10.50am Tuesday after staff reported “trouble with a student” and called for assistance.
A Department of Education spokesman said “any situation that threatens the safety and wellbeing of staff or students is treated extremely seriously, and dealt with as a matter of priority”.
The spokesman said no students or teachers were injured.
“The school is investigating the incident and will apply disciplinary consequences in line with the student code of conduct,” he said.
A private Mackay school will expand again with a 916sq m double storey multipurpose building.
Mackay Regional Council has approved Carlisle Adventist Christian College’s development proposal which detailed a ground floor food technology classroom with ten cooking stations. Approved plans for the expansion at Carlisle Adventist Christian College, 17 Holts Rd, Beaconsfield.
Plans also include a pantry and dry store, a cafe corner with a coffee machine, preparation and wash benches, a three-table cafe and alfresco area connected to the servery.
