| GUIDANCE FOR PARENTS
Schools have a dial-in service if there is a risk
of closure due to adverse weather. This allows parents to listen to a
recorded message from the headteacher. You can also check the school
closures website:
http://www.winter.highlandschools.org.uk
How to use the dial-in service:
Dial Highland Council's access number - 0870
054 6999
- Now enter our school's pin number 04 (3190)
You have two attempts to enter the pin number and you will be disconnected
after a second failed attempt. If this happens, check the number and
redial. (Please inform the school if you have any problems with this.)
- You will now hear the school's name. Ensure
that this is correct before going on.
- You will now be taken to the MAIN MENU
where you will be given 4 options:
Press 1 to hear the school's message about the
adverse weather for example whether or not the school is to close or if
transport arrangements have been affected.
Press 4 to enter the pin number for another
school within the authority. Parents may have children who attend different
schools. This option allows you to move from one school's messaging service
to another without having to dial in again.
USING OTHER FEATURES
Press 3 to hear general information messages
The school may use this as an additional way of informing parents about
school events. Parents may hear up to ten messages with the most recent
played first. |
