According to Mikael Kalered, internal commander at the Rescue Service Östra Götaland, the fire started in a wooden structure at the school and then spread to a small barrack, belonging to the school.

- It was discovered by residents.

There are quite a lot of properties nearby, says Mikael Kalered.

When the rescue service arrived at the scene, it burned in the outer wall of the barracks.

The fire has now been extinguished, according to Kalered, but the rescue service remains to check that the fire has not spread to the building.

They are expected to be on site for about another hour.

Police are also on site to investigate the cause of the fire, which is still unclear.
