Peterborough school to remain closed until at least Monday due to heating fault

Pupils that arrived for school today (November 26) had to be sent home after the fault meant there was no heating or hot water inside the building.

The school has now confirmed that they will remain closed on Friday and hope to be able to open the doors again on Monday.

In the meantime, pupils will follow their usual timetables online instead.

A statement to parents this afternoon said: “Thank you for your swift response this morning.

“We have engineers on site working on the heating and hot water.

“Unfortunately, the Academy will not be able to open on Friday 27 November.

“Students will be set work on Microsoft Teams at the stated lesson times and will follow their usual timetable for the day.

“We anticipate the Academy reopening on Monday 30 November. However, if the situation changes due to delays fixing the fault, we will update you as soon as possible.”
