A recent survey has revealed that five primary schools in Britain have no pupils who speak English as their first language.

There are almost 240 schools in UK where 90 percent of the kids speak a different mother tongue, the Daily Star reports.

Education experts said immigration often had a positive impact on British-born pupils by bringing good work ethic to schools.

Two of these schools are in Oldham, which has a large Pakistani and Bangladeshi population, the report added.

The others are in Blackburn and Tipton in West Mids, with large populations of south Asian immigrants.
