A faulty stage light sparked a blaze in a school theatre. The fire started at the Brockhill Park School, in Sandling Road, Hythe, a comprehensive specialising in the performing arts. Firefighters were called at 10.27am yesterday (Friday) and spent around an hour and a half tackling the blaze. Students were evacuated during the emergency. A Kent Fire and Rescue spokesman said: “Two fire engines attended, and crews used a hose reel jet to extinguish the flames that had spread to a curtain. “There were no reported injuries.” The school has been asked for comment.
