Police are urging people to look after the Island's schools, following reports of anti social behaviour and criminal damage.
The Central Neighbourhood Policing Team says its received complaints of both happening to property in and around schools on Manx shores.
In an update on social media, officers are describing the situation as 'upsetting', saying damage caused can make areas unsafe and schools will have to foot the bill for repairs.
Authorities are therefore urging residents to make sure they look after the facilities.
