Adverse Weather

Emergency Closing of Academy Procedures

In the event of severe weather conditions, or indeed any other emergency, we may need to close the academy. This is a decision that can often only be made early in the morning. In making this decision there is a need to balance the health and safety risks of students making hazardous journeys and number of staff that can actually get to work, against the loss of a school day.

When a decision is made, we let you know ONLY if the academy is closed in these ways:

• Website
• School Comms message

Please do not ring the office to check if we are open.  Assume we are unless you hear otherwise from the above options.
