The alleged wording of the email said that at 3.15pm a car would drive into as many students as possible as they tried to leave.

It added that a gunman would shoot any students if the school tried to evacuate them.

The origin of the email is currently unknown but police confirmed “malicious communications” were sent ‘across the country’.

Counter Terrorism teams in the North East were also been brought in to deal with the vile threats.

Areas affected included London, Durham, Cambridge, Suffolk the West Midlands and Stoke-on-Trent, while numerous other police forces were monitoring the situation.

Meanwhile, frantic parents were reported to have been arriving at schools across the UK in a desperate attempt to remove their children.

Headteacher of Plymouth’s Marlborough Primary School Rachel Summers said: “We followed procedure by phoning 999, phoning the police, as soon as we received that email – and then went into lockdown, so that children were all inside, with doors locked, nobody in, nobody out, just to be safe and make sure children were ok.

“We have a nursery unit that finishes at 11.45 and new children come in for the afternoon session. We were waiting for advice from the police. Until we had advice as to whether we could let children leave and go from the morning session, and whether we could let new ones in.
