Newcastle school closures due to coronavirus pandemic

A number of schools and colleges across the North East have closed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

As the virus continues to spread across the country, some schools are struggling to run as normal due to staff shortages.

Some staff members are self-isolating following the government’s new advice leaving schools understaffed.

The Government has said all schools will close from March 20 until further notice.

There have been no closures in Newcastle as yet but this page will be updated.
