Walton High School was opened first thing but then closed to years 10,11 and 6th formers,due to lack of teachers being able to get in.
They were keeping years 7,8 & 9 there unless the parents phoned and gave permission to come home.
(No normal lessons apparently,just all kids split under the supervision of the teachers that were on the premises.)
My sons teacher got everyone to ring home about 10am to see if they were allowed home or not.

wanna see my snake?
Can't see John Wheeldon on that list? Did you get a phone call?
There's a few not on that list that are closed. Tillington for example. So, not very informative, much like school websites it seems.tek-monkey said:
The office started phoning around lunchtime, my son is off anyway today but I've had two parents contact me that have been informed by the school. Now he's made a miraculous recovery and is off sledging with friends after 2pm!

Blessed William Howard closed at 1:20pm. Dunno why they bothered opening it. Ridiculous.

don't mention the blinds
It was opened in 1963 to provide secondary education to the many children who were completing primary education in the junior catholic schools, and their choice was limited in the area causing kids to travel distance or attend non-parochial schools. It is built on a site owned by william howard 1st viscount of stafford who was executed for treason in 1680......zakkwylde87 said:

In the 60's when we had real snow, school was never closed, often told, keep your coats on the heatings not working. When I moved to secondary school we were snowed in at school, we had to stay the night with kids or teachers who lived near the school. Unfortunately I was one of the six who had to stay with the the headteacher and his family. They never had a telly. We had to read and do our homework.
