Lambeth Council has been given recommendations from the coroner to "prevent future deaths"after a six-year-old boy choked at a summer school.

Yunis Malik Hadi died after choking on food at the South London Islamic Centre in January where he was learning Arabic.

Assistant coroner Lorna Tagliavini's concerns included a lack of oversight of supervision and child safeguarding at the centre, as well as concerns teachers and volunteers present did not have formal CPR training.

Her report also highlighted a lack of emergency equipment at the centre, including a defibrillator.

Safeguarding, supervision and formal training in first aid and choking response is something the council can oversee, according to the report.

The unsupervised six-year-old choked on a snack he had brought with him from home, while waiting to be collected after classes at the centre.

"Yunis choked and collapsed and despite extensive CPR efforts by the centre and the London Ambulance Service he could not be resuscitated and life extinct was declared at St George's Hospital, London," according to the report.

There was a risk that future deaths would occur unless action was taken, according to the report.

"In my opinion action should be taken to prevent future deaths and I believe your organisation [Lambeth Council] has the power to take such action," the report read.

"Although the centre has told me at the inquest of steps they have taken or are going to take to prevent similar occurrences, it is my opinion that your organisation has the authority to ensure the proposed changes are implemented by the centre and kept up to date."

Lambeth Council will have to respond to the coroner's concerns, and set out a timetable for action.

Lambeth Council did not want to comment.
