Bad Weather Procedure
It is the school’s policy to remain open during periods of bad weather where reasonably possible. However, there may be occasions where opening the school may not be possible for health and safety reasons, or indeed when travel to school for pupils and staff may be especially dangerous.
If we do decide to close the school due to bad weather overnight, we would inform parents in the following ways:
- The school website will be updated with details of the closure. This is likely to be the first thing we are able to do as it does not require a member of staff to be in school
- All parents will be informed by text message and email
- Home Learning will be put in place for the children as soon as practically possible (this may not be on the first day of closure)
If we need to close the school during the normal day we will follow the same procedure as outlined above. Members of staff will of course stay with any uncollected children in this event until their parents or guardians are able to come and collect. If this does occur, parents should please come to the front of the school and report to reception.
