School Security and Safety of Children
Weather Conditions
In the event of bad ice/snow the Headteacher or a senior teacher will make an assessment of the paths and decide whether gritting is required and the priority gritting areas. Wiltshire’s general guidance is to ensure a path from the school boundary to the main entrance is gritted for pedestrian access. The official main entrance to the school is the ramp area in the small playground which is between Class 1 and the school hall.
To ensure the safety of all, we ask that parents and children walk in carefully and stay on the gritted pathway.
I would like to point out that as a school, we do not grit the school car park.
If we need to close the school because of the weather conditions, then the school will inform you via the school texting system and via Heart Radio.
