The first thing I am going to say is that you cannot win over snow closures. When deciding whether to close or not, you have to accept that you cannot please all of the people all of the time and so you must simply do what you feel is right to ensure the safety and wellbeing of your pupils and your team.
Having said that, in this internet age there is absolutely no reason why you cannot continue to educate children who are at home should a closure or partial closure occur.
Of course, some families might not have access to the internet at home – but this can be overcome by encouraging all families to put in place preparations in advance.
