Wales school closures full list as snow and ice causes disruption

A yellow weather warning for snow and ice is in place for Wales until 10am on Tuesday morning. The warning came into effect at 5pm on Monday, meaning some people across the country could be waking up to a layer of snow.

However, in areas where snowfall hasn’t been as prolific, ice may be the cause of disruption, as wintery showers and freezing temperatures cause surface water to freeze. Dyfed-Powys Police warned that road conditions across Ceredigion were particularly poor on Monday evening, urging people only to travel when necessary.

The Met Office forecast for Tuesday says: “A cold, icy morning with wintry showers across the country. Staying cold and breezy for many, with further sleet and snow showers, these mainly in the north and west. Plenty of sunshine in between. Feeling cold in the brisk wind.”

Here are all the school closures in Wales for Tuesday, January 7 at 6.30am

Pembrokeshire

  • Roch Community School – closed due to an issue with the heating system

Powys

  • Carsws C.P. School – closed due to utilities failure

Flintshire

  • Argoed High School – closed due to no heating

We will keep checking and update this page if more are added.
