Severe Weather Procedures

I would like to remind you of the arrangements for notifying parents/carers of any school closures or delayed starts to the day.

If we experience snow or severe weather, we will assess the safety and practicality of opening school to pupils. Our priority is always to open the school as soon as possible. If road conditions make a normal start unlikely, we will delay opening until conditions improve.

If we have to close we will inform Kirklees Council, who will contact the local radio stations on our behalf. We will inform parents via Class Dojo, a news item on our school website, Facebook and Twitter.
