Snow Line PDF Print E-mail

Parents must decide whether it is safe to travel to school.  Pupils should have appropriate clothing including shoes or wellies that can cope with snow and ice.  School shoes should be brought in to school so footwear can be changed.  If parents decide to send their children to school, they should have arrangements in place for them to be collected should the school close early.  Bus companies can give quite short notice if they intend to cease operations.  NCTX have a new Facebook page that is regularly updated with bus information which can be found here.

The Foundation Unit is run in a unique way. Any closure announcement will include a comment about the unit. The unit will not open unless at least one member of the team of staff can attend school.
