In response to difficult conditions:

The Executive Headteacher will decide, in light of the particular circumstances prevailing in the local area or within the school premises, whether or not a closure of a school is necessary, as a result of; (i) damage to the school buildings, (ii) loss of utility supply, (iii) difficulty in accessing the site and/or buildings safely.

If under the circumstances the Executive Headteacher concludes that a school cannot open:

  • Closure decisions will be immediately reported to Shropshire Council
  • The school will inform parents via normal communication channels – SMS notification and/or email via School Spider.
  • The school will reopen as soon as it is possible to do so. This will be communicated to parents via normal communication channels – SMS notification and/or email via School Spider.
