Severe Weather


We will always make every effort to remain open during periods of severe weather and we have a formal protocol in place.


Please email absence@thelaurelsschool.org if your daughter is unable to attend school due to severe weather.

 

The following alert system will be used:


RED alert – The school is closed. Parents will receive an email regarding school closure.


AMBER alert – There is currently insufficient information about the state of the roads, the situation with public transport and the difficulties of staff getting in. Parents will be informed by email. A staggered arrival and collection system will be in place. Parents should follow general safety guidelines.


GREEN alert – The school is open as usual and pupils should attend at the normal times.


If the school is open we will do everything we can to ensure safe access to the building. However, parents are reminded to take all the necessary precautions for ensuring their daughters’ safe journey to school.
