Schools Closed Across Britain Due to Severe Weather

Severe winter weather has led to the closure of numerous schools across various regions in the UK, including North Staffordshire, Devon, Cornwall, and Dorset. The Met Office issued warnings for icy conditions and significant snowfall, prompting many schools to shut down for safety reasons, with families waking up to heavy snow blankets. In North Staffordshire, schools closed due to dangerous road conditions following overnight snowfall, marking the second closure in the week. Similarly, Devon and Cornwall faced school closures and disrupted train services as icy conditions persisted. In Dorset, the National Trust's Corfe Castle also closed, along with dozens of local schools. Meanwhile, areas in North Wales experienced chaos on untreated roads, resulting in additional school closures as councils assessed safety for travel.
