Closure Due To Snow & Unsafe Conditions

Dear Parents and Carers

Cherry Oak will be closed to pupils and staff on the 25th January 2021 due to adverse weather conditions.

Any decisions to close the school are only taken after consultation with the Federation Leadership Team, Governors, the Site Manager and the Headteachers of our neighbouring schools. As always, in any decision, the safety of our children, parents and staff are paramount. We also have to take into account driving conditions and the condition of pavements and roads around the school.

As a parent myself, I know how difficult and frustrating it can be when arrangements have to be altered at short notice. However, I am sure that you will appreciate that the current snow and icy conditions would put pupils, parents, carers and staff at risk.

A further update will follow tomorrow.

Regards

Ross Ashcroft

Headteacher
