A NEW access ramp which has been installed at a school in Spain’s Andalucia has gone viral on social media.
The Seville based CEIP San Mateo school were delighted to reveal their new addition on social media which was inaugurated by the Mayor of Guadaira, Ana Isabel Jiménez.
Praising the efforts of the school to ensure the security of the schoolchildren, Ms Jiménez proudly shared pictures of the ramp to her official Twitter account, stating that:
