    Message from EA with regards to todays decision and advice link

    Update on Emergency Early School Closure - Storm Amy

    We very much regret the disruption today for schools, children and families but underline that safety is our highest priority.
    The closure decision relates to schools located in counties Antrim, Londonderry, Tyrone and Fermanagh. They are required to close at 12 midday today, Friday 03 October 2025.
    The amber weather warning issued by the Met Office applies specifically to these four counties.
    Our decision has been taken in the interests of the safety of children, young people and staff.
    The amber alert cited the potential for power cuts and damage to buildings, including a risk of injuries from flying debris.
    Schools, parents and children outside the amber areas should follow the safety advice in relation to Storm Amy

    Schools outside the amber alert counties can make individual decisions at their own discretion, for instance on pupils and staff who live in the amber areas.
