King William's College says none of its Chinese students are going back to China for the half-term break, following global warnings about the Coronavirus outbreak.

In a statement, the school's principal, Joss Buchanan, also said "we have postponed all visits from China until the crisis is over."

The school says it is receiving daily updates from the Boarding Schools' Association, as well as medical professionals, Public Health England and Isle of Man Government.

Mr Buchanan also said: "The risk to our community continues to be low and we remain vigilant and dynamic in our approach."
