Emergency school closures
School closures due to bad weather or other reasons
All schools have their own arrangements to contact parents and carers should there be a need to close the school at short notice, for example in the event of severe weather. This may include the use of bespoke parent mailing systems, text, social media etc., as well as use of the individual school's website.
We rely on schools informing us of when they are closed. Any information of schools below is a list of closed schools that we are currently aware of. In the event of a large number of schools being closed due to adverse weather, this information may take some time to be fully updated.
If your school is not listed below, we strongly recommend that you contact your school directly to establish if the school is closed. If a school is closed this information should be available on the school’s website.
