Three more schools in Sunderland have partially closed this week due to coronavirus.
Mill Hill Primary, Southwick Primary and St John Boste Primary have all partially closed for classes or year groups due to Covid-19.
According to Together for Children, which delivers children's services on behalf of Sunderland City Council, the three schools were added to the closure list on Monday.
One reception class is now isolating at Mill Hill Primary School on Torphin Hill Drive after there was a positive case of coronavirus.
In a statement, the school said: "There has been a positive case of Covid-19 in a Reception bubble therefore this bubble is now closed.
"We will provide further information when we receive further advice from Public Health, England."
At Southwick Primary School, the school is partially closed to Year 2 while St John Boste Primary School is closed to one reception class and one Year 2 class.
The schools are the latest closures to be announced this week with 27 schools in Sunderland currently partially or fully closed.
A number of schools across the region have been affected by coronavirus after they reopened earlier this month.
In some cases, the closures only apply to certain year groups or class group, depending on where the reported coronavirus is found.
While some asked year groups or bubbles to isolate at home, others decided to close for a deep clean.
