Generally us adults dont need supervising and can look after ourselves!

Good answer Smo. But....
What about private schools and boarding schools (ive never heard of them closing.... although i may be mistaken).

They dont close, but because the kids live on site they have enough staff for a bare min coverage for H&S requirements etc at all times, if normal lessons happen or not is a different matter!

boaring cos... they don need to go anywhere to get to school... :)
private schools isnt answerable to the council, and i would imagine its the council who announces the closures to the press
private would ring each parent :)

Boardng schools HAVE to have a minimum no. of staff who live-in.
att:
I worked in the private education sector for 20 years.
They do not close and depend on lot`s of day school pupils, full quota boarding schools are a thing of the past, it is just uneconomical.
Private schools will remain open because the parents are paying for it.....Simple as that.
Parent pressure in the private environment takes on a new meaning......And closing the school is just not an option.

Its normaly the headmaster who decides but on rare occasions the LEA can close all the schools in the LEA (happened today with Dudley and Birmingham closing everything).
BTW Todays problem was not the kids getting to school it was the risk of them not getting home again!!!!!!
