All Birmingham Schools Shut on Friday 9 February

Due to severe weather all schools in Birmingham are closed on Thursday 08 and Friday 09 February 2007. Cllr Les Lawrence, cabinet member for Children Young People & Families, said that he has taken the decision to close schools because of the severe weather, transport difficulties and to ensure the safety of all children and staff.

Before I left for work this morning they was a clip of the snow in Birmingham saying that the majority of schools were closed.... they was barely any snow in the shot.

 

We had more here and we hardly had any and they was noway we would be closed. Don't think we have had a day off for snow in 3 years. The school is in a valley and very rarely gets any snow. I can go from my house to school in about 10 mins and go from about 5 inches of snow on my doorstep to a light covering but the time I get to work.

 

More often then not its generally the bus company that ring the school up and say they cant make it rather then the school closing due to snow.
