Adverse Weather Procedures
If snow is forecast during the coming weeks, here is a quick reminder of our procedures:
- If school is closed due to bad weather, we will send an email to all parents via ParentMail.
- We will post the information on our school Facebook page.
- You can check our website after 8am. Updates to our website are also done throughout the day.
- You can visit the Lancashire County Council site: https://schoolcalendar.lancashire.gov.uk/closures/
If snow starts to fall heavily during the school day, and conditions deteriorate, we may close school early. Here are our procedures:
- Our first step would be to email all parents via ParentMail.
- We would publish the early closure on our school website and on our Facebook page.
- We expect all parents to arrange for their child/ren to be collected.
- There will be no After School Club if school closes early.
- Check our school website / Facebook regularly, if possible.
- Keep your eye out on the weather during the school day.
- Try to group together as parents to pass information round quickly and share the Facebook posts.
And finally:
If you change your mobile or home phone number please let us know as soon as possible to ensure we have the correct contact details for you on our ParentMail system.
We will do our very best to open during any snowfall, and we ask you to do your very best to get your children here. We will not routinely authorise any absences during adverse weather if parents live within walking distance
