A spokesman said: "There were reports of an (uncorroborated) incident outside Hillington Primary recently.  Police were informed and have now advised that no criminality has taken place.

"In response to these reports, a letter is being sent to carers/parents advising them that the school’s teachers have reiterated the stranger danger message to pupils, and asking that this message be discussed at home and that normal vigilance continues when dropping off and picking up children at school."

The Glasgow Times understands that community police officers will be at the school today to discuss any further concerns that parents may have.
