Inset day for us but other schools have moved to online. South Wales.

PollysPockets · 17/02/2022 16:28

Yep ours in Dorset is closed too, well switched instead to online learning but we most probably will get a power cut as we usually do even if it’s just a bit windy/stormy so most likely will have no electricity 👍

TheWayTheLightFalls · 17/02/2022 16:28

We’re on HT anyway but I’m another one who thought it was the weekend already . It’s all the children everywhere.

Interested in this thread?

Yes, schools closed in Carmarthenshire. I'm hoping it's all going to be ok 🤞

mogschristmascalamity · 17/02/2022 16:33

South east (berks) We are on alert for closure and online learning.

Covid really killed off snow days didn't it...

ladydimitrescu · 17/02/2022 16:34

Yep us. Also SW, and expecting home learning - I shan't be doing this

HopefulProcrastinator · 17/02/2022 16:34

Closed in Cardiff and from social media - most of South Wales plus Ceredigion.

Both children utterly disappointed this means online learning rather than a day off!

I think it's a sensible precaution though given what's being predicted.

ForTheLoveOfSleep · 17/02/2022 16:38

Mid Devon here 1/3 Schools closed for my DC atm

EmpressSuiko · 17/02/2022 16:39

Central Devon here and no closure just yet but I don’t think I’ll send them in!

Just2MoreSeasons · 17/02/2022 16:44

Secondary school closed -Gloucestershire. No on line learning either due to potential for distribution to power

couchparsnip · 17/02/2022 16:45

Midlands here. We're on half term but DS has a revision class tomorrow that's still on.

MysteriousMonkey · 17/02/2022 16:45

Four children at four different schools. Two of which are closed.

MysteriousMonkey · 17/02/2022 16:45

Also south west Grin

EmbarrassingHadrosaurus · 17/02/2022 16:46

Friends and family in SW have had schools closed for tomorrow and several have had their hospital appointments cancelled.

Northernsoullover · 17/02/2022 16:48

Schools closed and we have received an email saying peripatetic workers to stay at home.

ClaudineClare · 17/02/2022 16:49

Closed here in Wales.

StarryNightSewing29 · 17/02/2022 16:50

South Dorset and 3 out of 4 schools closed for us so far.
How this means dh and I can still work, I've no idea. We're both keyworkers and wfh is not an option.

kungfupannda · 17/02/2022 16:50

South west here. Eldest's school has closed. The younger ones' school is hanging on well beyond almost every other local school. I'm assuming they will crack at some point.

Chakraleaf · 17/02/2022 16:51

Ours are open but suffolk is Amber warning, not red.

Porfre · 17/02/2022 16:52

Half term here

VanLife · 17/02/2022 16:53

@EmpressSuiko

Central Devon here and no closure just yet but I don’t think I’ll send them in!
Interesting.. were mid Devon too, no school closure as of yet.. Im not sure what to do ..
kittensinthekitchen · 17/02/2022 16:54

Newsflash Saturday schools are all closed this Friday.

@UrsulaBursula 😂

Nope, not closed here.

Hippywannabe · 17/02/2022 16:54

Plymouth here andd work in a school. No news yet

EmpressSuiko · 17/02/2022 16:56

@VanLife I don’t drive and the 40 minute walk to school isn’t safe in normal weather conditions so my children are on a school bus, if they suddenly need collecting I won’t be able to get them, I’m hoping the school caved in so I don’t need to stress!

kittensinthekitchen · 17/02/2022 16:56

Just saw there's a red weather warning in a small part of England. Don't think we've ever closed schools for a red wind warning, hope things aren't too bad.
