Reading College has debunked fake social media messages suggesting it would close.

The college clarified it remained open despite these false claims.

A message on Reading community Facebook groups falsely claimed a power cut would close the college.

Reading College said: "We want to clarify that college is open as normal tomorrow, so please disregard any messages you may have seen or received about college being closed."

They apologised for any resulting confusion.

Another fake message on November 4 claimed a water leak would prompt closure, which the college also dismissed as false.
