Emergency School Closure Procedure
Dear Parents/Carers,
This is the process we will follow in the rare case the school needs to close in an emergency, for example when there is heavy snow or high winds.
- IF we have heavy snowfall predicted or otherwise, This DOES NOT mean that the school will be closed. We will assess the ability of staff to get into the school and the safety/accessibility of routes into the sites.
- We will make a decision on whether to close the school or not by 7:00am and this will be communicated via the schools websites and parentmail.
- If school remains open; we may adopt a staggered start to allow for pupils and staffing to arrive safely – this will be communicated at the time, along with any changes to access.
- Should we need to, we will cancel breakfast club before 6:00am and the relevant group of parents will be informed.
- If school is closed, online learning will be provided for the children via SeeSaw and expectations and access will be communicated at the time.
We will always endeavour to remain open and communicate all decisions in a clear and timely fashion.
Thank you for your ongoing support and understanding,
Mrs Hooker
