Adverse Weather

ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS AND SCHOOL CLOSURES

School is sometimes disrupted by the adverse weather conditions that are prevalent in the winter months. Whilst a decision by the Head Teacher to close the school due to adverse weather is never taken lightly, it is occasionally inevitable.

In line with Highland Council policy, details of all the methods used for school closures is detailed in https://www.highland.gov.uk/downloads/file/247/adverse_weather_guidance_-_english_version

In the event of school closure during the day because of weather conditions or other emergency, every attempt will be made to see that children will be sent home in family groups and/or with friends. To enable this to take place smoothly, all children and the school should be made aware of their emergency arrangements.
