College closed today: snow disrupts travel

10th February 2021

Weather and travel conditions have improved: for Thursday and Friday this week (11 and 12 February) the Easton College campus will be open only for a small number of students expected to attend. Half term is next week and the campus will re-open the following week, beginning 22 February, again only or students who are expected to attend. Online teaching and learning will continue.

Although weather conditions have eased today, travel remains difficult in some areas. Since virtually all of Easton College teaching and learning is currently being delivered online we have decided not to reopen the college campus tomorrow Wednesday 10 February. Updates for Thursday and Friday will be made tomorrow.

With the forecast remaining wintry and advice from Norfolk Police to avoid all unnecessary journeys, Easton College will remain closed on Tuesday 9 February. Teaching and learning will continue online as it has since the beginning of term. Updates will follow on the website and on social media.  

Snow is affecting travel across large parts of East Anglia. We have decided to close Easton College to all students and staff to minimise risk. Fortunately, teaching and learning is currently being delivered online and that will continue as normal. We will update websites and social media and communicate via College emails about any disruption beyond Monday 8 February.
