College closure procedures

A decision regarding any closure of the College for the day ahead (for example, because of severe weather) will be announced no later than 7.30am, and earlier if information regarding, for example, weather and traffic conditions make this possible.

Where there has been prior warning of a possible closure, it is recognised that some staff and students, who would normally leave home before 7.30am, would have to delay the start of their journey in order to wait for the announcement; in these circumstances, it is understood that it may not be possible to reach College for the start of period 1.

Closure announcements will be made via local radio stations, the College telephone message system and the College website.
