Lawn Manor Academy has been forced to close for the entire day after initial attempts to open late were abandoned due to a health and safety incident.

Lawn Manor Academy has closed for the day after a health and safety issue prompted an emergency revision to its operating hours. The school had initially informed parents and guardians that it planned to open at 11am on Monday, 12 October, following the discovery of the issue earlier that morning.

However, the anticipated mid-morning opening did not proceed. Following a lack of further updates via the school's primary communication channels, reports from parents indicate that a text message has been circulated confirming that the academy will remain closed for the remainder of the day.

The school has not yet released specific details regarding the nature of the health and safety concern. Parents and pupils are advised to monitor official school communication channels for further information regarding when the academy is expected to reopen.
