School closure

There may be occasions when it is necessary for Melling St Wilfrid CE Primary School to close temporarily in the interests of health and safety to pupils and staff. In most cases this will be as a result of problems relating to the school building or heating, or because of severe weather conditions. If the Head Teacher and/or the Chair of Governors feel it is necessary, after due consideration, not to open the school, or to close the school early, every effort will be made to inform parents/carers and other agencies of the decision at the earliest opportunity.
