Pupils scared by asteroid spoof
`Pupils were left in tears after a teacher told them that an asteroid was about to hit Earth and kill them all. [..]
The head of year behind the assembly “stunt” later moved to reassure them.
He had told the year nine students that the asteroid was on a “collision course”.
It is also believed that the students were told that they should go home and say “final farewells” to their families.’
