So basically, looking at the latest list, it started with a few, and the teachers from the rest will have moaned they arnt getting the day off and are now following suit.

Also, they just look randomly scattered around the area's, some are closed and some are open, its not like "well area x is in a terrible state, close all scools in area x" for instance.

WTF is wrong with this country, people can't cope with a bit of snow??

Seen some of the usual ASBO cases before, on their way home from School, throwing snowballs at passing cars and people.

Will go full-scale tomorrow. This is one reason the schools should be in school. Why do so few kids have problems getting to school nowadays?

When I was in school, and it was heavy snow, I never had a problem, and I used to walk from Moreton, to Wallasey school with me mates, and I can't remember the school being closed.

Its a good job the Scandinavians dont take a leaf out of our book - their countries would shut down for 4 months every year! [Linked Image]

Gonna be tricky kids getting to school if they use the bus. Birkenhead School should be fine - all the mummy's drive Chelsea tractors!

Haha when I was in Birkenhead School, I used to get the bus grin

This is why catchment area's are so important - a child should ideally be within walking distance of the school - the majority of the teachers should be too.

Of course not every kid is going to be able to attend, but its rediculous how they shut the school down.
