    WorkSafe is looking into how a Canterbury high school student caught fire in class


    The Year 13 Ashburton College student was hospitalised with serious injuries, after his clothes caught fire in an automotive class.

    WorkSafe is making inquiries but is yet to launch a formal investigation.
