We make every effort to keep the The Orchards School open. If the school is going to close, we will send you a message on the school messaging service Marvellous Me by 7am.
When deciding whether to open the school, we consider the following points:
The Senior Leadership Team will make their decision, supported by Bright Futures, by 7.00 a.m. at the latest and earlier if possible. Parents will receive a Marvellous Me message if the school is closed to pupils. Information will also be posted on the school website, facebook and ‘X’.
On snowy or icy days when the school is open, we may close early or allow transport to leave site early so that everyone can get home safely and in good time. Parents will be informed by the transport providers or by text from the school.
