Severe Weather Arrangements
October 2016
Dear Parent/Carer
EMERGENCY CLOSURE OF SCHOOL DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER CONDITIONS
In case this winter should see weather conditions severe enough to cause the emergency closure of the school, we would like to remind you of our emergency procedures. If conditions are severe first thing in the morning, listen to local radio. Assume school is open unless a message is given out to the contrary.
Radio Station | Frequencies & Websites | Closed School broadcast times |
BBC Radio Suffolk | 95.5/95.9/103.9/104.6FM www.bbc.co.uk/suffolk |
10 past the hour 20 to the hour |
Heart | 97.1/96.4FM www.heartipswich.co.uk |
After the news on the hour and on the half hour |
School Website | www.tudor.suffolk.dbprimary.com |
Details of school closures can also be found at http://schoolclosures.suffolk.gov.uk.
Although you may not have heard that school is closed, if you feel the weather conditions are so bad that your child would be exposed to unnecessary danger whilst travelling to school, then please keep them at home.
In some cases the school may open later to ensure that there will be adequate supervision for your child. This will also be emailed or broadcast.
Please avoid telephoning school unless you have an emergency. If the phone lines are blocked with incoming calls, we cannot contact County or local radio.
Yours sincerely
Liz Campbell
Head teacher
