A BUS carrying scores of schoolkids crashed into a ditch this morning.

Ambulance crews raced to the scene following reports that a double decker full of passengers had veered off the road at around 8.15am.



Photos from the scene show a yellow 700 Coastliner at what appears to be a 45 degree angle in Sidlesham near Chichester, West Sussex, during rush hour.

Unconfirmed reports suggest it careered off the road to avoid another car.

Paramedics treated several people for minor injuries at the scene on Highleigh Road, but no-one required hospitalisation.

The area between Keynor Lane and Rotten Row is partially blocked following the collision.

A spokesperson for South East Coast Ambulance Service said: "We were called out at around 8.15am to Highleigh Road near Chichester to reports that a bus had left the road.

"We sent ambulance crews who dealt with a small number of minor injuries.
