EMERGENCY
CLOSURE -GUIDELINES FOR PARENTS
Should we
be forced to close the school at short notice due to power cuts,
bad weather, illness, heating failure , industrial action or any other
major event we will:
a) broadcast
the information on Wiltshire Radio( 97.2 & 102.2 GWR FM) and keep them
informed of the situation throughout the day.
b)
where possible we will put a message on our website www.kingslodgeschool.net
and we will also update ‘ ansaphone ‘ with the current situation.
Both these systems are totally
dependent on us
having a power supply.
c) endeavour
to keep the school office open , with a skeleton staff.
d) have
staff at the school gates from
8.30am
to
9.00am
to update you on the situation and to direct children who come to school alone
to the school office, where we will
contact their parents to arrange for them to be collected
e) contact
parents by telephone, where
possible, if we should need to close the school during the course of a school
day
Arrangements will be made to accommodate children until they are
collected.
Details of the closure will also be broadcast on Wiltshire Radio( 97.2
& 102.2 GWR FM)
We
would like you to:
a)
ensure that if your child
walks to school alone he/she knows
that they MUST come into school and
report to the school office even if
they are told during their journey that the school is closed.
They must not go straight home
b) listen to
broadcasts on Wiltshire Radio( 97.2 & 102.2
GWR FM)/ consult the website where possible
