School Closure
School Closure (due to adverse weather, snow or other emergency)
For your information, during wintery weather, we do not anticipate having to close the school. All staff work hard to keep Bishopthorpe Infant School open wherever possible but occasionally circumstances such as extremely bad weather or other emergencies, such as loss of heating, may mean that we have to make a decision to close the school, or amend start and/or finish times.
Should this become necessary at any point, this would be announced on Radio York and would be published on the City of York Council and our School Website. Notification would also be sent by e-mail to all parents.
Please avoid telephoning the school office, leaving the line free for those who are having difficulty making the journey to work or for the school to make contingency plans should the need arise.
