Mr Pope says …

 First of all a big apology for having to close the school because of a gas leak which we were told would be repaired in two days.  As a result we had no heating in school and we were unable to provide school meals.  Without heating the school would have been extremely cold for children and staff.While we contacted Education Bradford immediately to see if temporary electric heaters could be put into classrooms they would not allow this as it would overload the electric circuits.  Matters were made worse because the gas pipe was so badly corroded the whole of the pipe needed replacing and this added an extra four days to the repair.  Luckily the gas contractors agreed to work over the weekend to ensure the children could return to school as soon as possible.
