County fails to inform parents

11.47.00am GMT Mon 2nd Feb 2009

Whilst local media are busy reporting the huge number of school closures the County Council website was maintaining at 8 am this morning that the snow showers are light and schools will be open.

Liberal Democrat Councillor Chris White said: 'The county website is really worse than useless. Parents are being told that schools are open while national and local news outlets are telling people to stay at home and not to travel. It is also almost impossible to navigate.

'Our advice is to check your child's school website, many of which have been updated, and to listen to local radio.

'We will yet again be raising with the county council the lamentable state of its website.'
