<p>Dozens of children have been injured when a mad rush to the playground turned into a stampede at a primary school in western China.</p>
<p>Students at the No 5 Elementary School in Aksu city were rushing downstairs for after-class exercises at around noon local time on Monday when some students fell, the official Xinhua News Agency said.</p>
<p>The report said other students then pushed to squeeze through the narrow stairway, trampling on those who had fallen.</p>
<p>Xinhua put the number injured at nearly 100, while an official with the Aksu government&#8217;s office said more than 40 were hurt and are being treated in hospital. No deaths were reported.</p>
<p>The official said an investigation is under way. It is unclear whether teachers or other adults were present during the incident.</p>
<p>School safety in China came under scrutiny earlier this year when a string of stabbings around the country killed and injured dozens of school children.</p>
<p>The attacks prompted Chinese authorities to tighten security at schools. Police and guards were posted at entrances and video surveillance and intruder alarms installed on some school premises.</p>
