SEAT Ibiza warning light

I have a 2006 SEAT Ibiza 1.4 Sport, the little spanner symbol has just appeared next to the mileage clock along with the word "oil" flashing. I have checked the oil level and it is fine. The car was only MOT'd and serviced less than a month ago. Please help

Lack of oil pressure. Maybe the oil pump drive has failed, the oil pump has failed, or the sump filter has clogged. Don't drive the car in this state or the engine may seize.
