School closures

Any school closures will be communicated to parents via their school or college. The quickest way to find out if a school is closed will be to check the school’s own website.

Guidance has been issued to schools regarding extreme heat conditions. This was shared via a guidance note from the Health and Safety Hub to subscribing schools, and through a direct email sent to all settings on 23 June 2026. The communication includes links to the Department for Education’s latest publications and a heat checklist to help them take appropriate actions.

Whilst recognising the challenges extreme weather can create, schools have accountabilities to ensure children are safe and in extreme weather conditions, they would be expected to undertake a risk assessment to identify and mitigate risk. Individual school closures are decisions made by the schools themselves, based on these assessments and the control measures they have in place.

Due to the extreme heatwave the following schools have informed the Local Authority that they will be closed or are offering optional early pick-ups.

This information is correct as of 11.55pm on 26 June 2026.
