A LICHFIELD school has confirmed it will shut for a third day due to the hot weather.
Nether Stowe School had initially been shut yesterday (24th June) and 25th June.
However, it will stay closed tomorrow as well now.
In a statement posted on social media, a spokesperson said:
"Following updated risk assessments and the latest extreme heat forecasts, Nether Stowe School will remain closed tomorrow for the safety and wellbeing of pupils and staff.
"Revision materials will be available on our website from 9am and pastoral support will remain in place.
"We expect to reopen on Monday, subject to any changes in weather conditions."
It comes as The Friary School and King Edward VI School have implemented shorter school days for students as a result of the soaring temperatures.
