A 400-year-old west Cumbrian school that shut in 2015 is re-opening.

St Bees closed its doors after declining pupil numbers led to financial difficulties.

But a new board of trustees formed after the closure set up a partnership with a South East Asian education group and today announced the school will open again in September 2018.
