A SELBY schoolboy is to be disciplined after stealing a knife from a classroom.
The Year 10 pupil took the kitchen knife from a home economics classroom at Brayton College during the lunch break on Thursday.
Head teacher John Kesterton said the pupil had been seen waving the knife in a school corridor before a member of staff tackled him and confiscated the utensil.
He said that the knife was taken off the boy in a short space of time, but that one or two younger pupils had been worried.
Mr Kesterton said: "The boy is being disciplined."
