Dear Year 9 Parents and Carers,

I’m sure you will expect us to have kept a close eye on the weather forecast this week and may be aware there is now a higher grade Amber warning in place for our area.

https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/warnings#?date=2019-01-31&region=sw&regionType=area&id=da2cef65-d414-4d8c-968e-ae65224819ec

In light of the current forecast of snow setting in around 5pm this afternoon, and having received advice from our Health & Safety advisors - Delegated Services, I am advising all staff to leave promptly after the students this afternoon. Therefore, with regret, the Year 9 Pathways Evening planned for this evening will be postponed. We will notify you of the new date in due course.

We hope to open the school as usual tomorrow. We have tested our systems and  if we do need to close the school, we will notify parents via: Insight message; a notice on the banner on the school website; as well as via the BaNES website www.bathnes.gov.uk/school-closures and local radio stations.

Wrap up warm and take care!

Best wishes,

Mr Matthew Woodville

Principal
