The Education Authority is not saying exactly how many schools are affected.
Some primary school pupils in County Down will be without hot dinners for a period due to a shortage of school kitchen staff.

"We are working to resolve this disruption as quickly as possible and the EA's catering service will continue to liaise with all schools to ensure parents and carers are kept informed throughout.
