Mum says school banned boy from drinking squash on hottest day of year

A mum claims a teacher at her son's school told him he was only allowed one bottle of squash - on one of the hottest days of the year. Bryony Cappleman, 34, sent Jacob, seven, off to class on Monday with three 500ml bottles of squash because she says he is not keen on water.

But she claims when she picked Jacob up, he revealed he had been told by teaching staff he could only drink one juice bottle that day.

She says this left him dehydrated on one of the hottest days of the year. The mum messaged Wheatcroft Community Primary School to complain and find out what had happened.
