A junior school in Exeter was evacuated this evening after a fire broke out in the staff room.
Fire crews were called to Stoke Hill Junior School at 16:15 today following a call from staff reporting a fire in a dishwasher.
Two fire appliances from Danes Castle and Middlemoor were mobilised.
The fire was out on arrival so crews used a positive pressure ventilation fan only to clear the smoke and small tools to make the dishwasher safe.
Duty of care was left with staff and no persons were involved or injured.
