School closure may sometimes be necessary during extreme weather conditions. We will endeavor to keep the academy open whenever possible. When bad weather compromises the safety and security of the site, supervision of pupils or affects transport to and from the site, the academy will close.
A message will be sent out to all families if this is the case.
In bad weather, the transport operators have the responsibility for getting children safely to and from school. They will decide whether to bring your child to school or not, given their knowledge of the prevailing road conditions.
If the weather worsens during the day, pupils may leave school early. We will contact you to make sure that someone is at home to receive them.
Please ensure that the school office always has up to date contact numbers and a responsible person is contactable at all times in case of any necessary early closures or changes to transport home. You may also wish to advise your child’s transport operator of your contact number/s in case they need to contact you.
