Schools Face Heatwave Crisis
Description
Extreme heat warnings are hitting England and Wales, with temperatures potentially soaring to 40°C — forcing schools to brace for major disruptions. With a red weather alert in place, the National Association of Head Teachers urges schools to prioritize safety, potentially closing or sending kids home early. The Department for Education is advising schools to conduct risk assessments, as heat-related illness symptoms like fatigue and nausea demand immediate action. Unions warn that if conditions worsen, full or partial closures may be necessary to protect students and staff.
