A school in Essex, England has purchased a disused jet plane and plan to turn it into a classroom.
The aeroplane was bought by Milton Hall School in Westcliff-on-Sea in Essex, earlier this month.
The school bought the plane because they didn’t have a lot of space to build new classrooms.
The new plane had to be carried by large crane on to the playing field.
The plane still needs a lot of work before it can be used as a classroom, but the school hopes it will be ready by June.
