SCHOOLS in Denbighshire have closed today (November 19) as a result of the snowy weather conditions.

A yellow warning for snow and ice remains in the region from the Met Office until at least 11am this morning.

As a result, Denbighshire County Council has taken the decision to close several schools for the safety of their students and staff.

Here is the latest:

  • Ysgol Dyffryn Iâl, Llandegla
  • Ysgol Betws Gwerfil Goch, Corwen
  • Ysgol Carreg Emlyn, Ruthin
  • Ysgol Brynhyfryd, Ruthin
  • Ysgol Plas Cefndy Stepping Stones South, Ruthin
  • Ysgol Pant Pastynog, Denbigh
  • Ysgol Bro Famau (the sites in Llanferes and Llanarmon are closed)
  • Ysgol Pen Barras, Ruthin (only reception and nursery classes are closed)

For all of the above, Denbighshire County Council said the schools will contact pupils’ parents with more information.
