Please assume that school will be open until you are told otherwise by Dojo or Parentmail.
Consider if your own journey is safe - if it is not, do not travel
What if school is open but my own journey is unsafe?
It is imperative that parents make their own judgement about whether or not it is safe to travel. Each journey will be different and the judgement rests with you as parents.
Take more time. We have discretion to leave the registers open for longer on 'snow' days and your child will not be marked late if the journey has been delayed.
If you feel that it is unsafe to travel, then you should inform school on the answer machine by stating the name of your child and the fact that they will be absent.
What if school closes early?
If we are open, there is still a chance that we may close early. This is intended to help parents, not create extra disruption.
You will be allowed to collect your children at any time between 1.30pm and 3.30pm. This is intended to give parents some flexibility in the afternoons. YOU WILL BE INFORMED IF THIS IS TO HAPPEN.
