Snow forces all schools to close

Mon, 29 Nov 2010

All schools are closed this morning as wintry weather conditions continue to cause disruption across the Island.

The Department of Education and Children took the decision to give pupils the day off yesterday evening, following discussions with the Island's Met Office and Isle of Man Transport.

King William's College and the Buchan School are also closed, as is the Isle of Man College.

The DEC will continue to review the situation, and is expected to make a decision on whether schools will open on Tuesday later this afternoon
