Snow Guidelines:
13th January 2015
Here are the guidelines in the event of heavy snow:
In the event of heavy snow we will communicate to parents the status of the school as early as possible via
- Schoop
- School website (www.ysgolgymraegcwmbran.co.uk)
- BBC Radio Cymru/Wales
- Red Dragon Radio
- Torfaen website www.torfaen.gov.uk
In hazardous conditions the front gates will be closed to vehicles and one pathway will be cleared for all pedestrians to access the site via the gate by the main entrance/office (gate by the school garden). All other gates will be closed. We will also notify you via the website if there will be any delay to the school starting time i.e the severity of the conditions may require additional time to ensure that the route into the school is safe and there are sufficient numbers if staff on site to accommodate the pupils.
The school will only be closed as a final resort following discussions between the Head teacher, County Hall and the Chair of Governors.
Diolch am eich cydweithrediad / Thank you for your co-operation
