School Trips – Terms & Conditions
Winter Weather Procedures
St Bart’s expects to remain open throughout the year, given our modern buildings, site and equipment. Care should always be taken when walking to and from school. In severe weather, individuals’ decisions with regard to travel to school, must be based on their assessment of local road and transport conditions. Should extreme conditions necessitate a closure on health and safety grounds, or a later start to the school day, information will be provided as quickly as possible via:
• The school email system
• St Bart’s website www.stbarts.co.uk (homepage)
Should it be necessary to close the school part way through the school day, we will communicate this via:
• The school email system
• St Bart’s website www.stbarts.co.uk (homepage)
In the event of an early closure, we will assume that parents/carers give permission for their child to be released from school, earlier than the normal time of 3.10pm (or 2:50pm on a Friday), unless parents/carers let us know, preferably by email (or telephoning the House Office). In any circumstances we would be able to supervise students until such a time when parents could arrange collection. If the school were to be closed, students should look on Satchel One to find the work set.

All independent study set can be seen via the school website and parents have log-ins to allow them to see the full details of the work set for their own child. Students have their own individual log-ins. |
Our Parents’ Evening system is an easy to use online appointment booking system that allows our parents and carers to book their own appointments with teachers.
