SEVERAL south Bucks schools have closed early this afternoon due to 'adverse weather conditions'.

Pupils at the Highcrest Academy in High Wycombe, Widmer End Combined School and Little Kingshill Combined School were the first to be allowed to go home early after closing shortly after 1pm today.

West Wycombe Combined School and the Wycombe Grange Pupil Referral Unit have now followed and sent pupils home.

The Meadow School in Wooburn Green has been shut all day due to urgent maintenance.

Parents of pupils at Highcrest were informed of the closure, while those with children at Widmer End are being urged to come and collect their sons and daughters if possible. After school clubs have also been cancelled.

Staff at Little Kingshill say the roads around the school are starting to become dangerous due to the amount of snow falling there.
