POLICE are searching for a young boy after he failed to return home from his Basingstoke school today.

Joshua Kemp, 11, of Goodman Close, Kings Furlong, Basingstoke, did not return home after attending Cranbourne Business and Enterprise College.

It is believed he is still wearing school uniform and a khaki or olive coloured coat.

Police said Joshua’s family are growing increasingly concerned the later it gets.

Anyone who knows where Joshua is or has seen him since the end of school is asked to contact police on 101.
