Southborough's Hot Weather Resilience

Back
24th Jun 2026

Dear Students, Parents and Carers,

With widespread concern about hot weather in schools, I thought I would provide reassurance by revisiting the mitigations that we have in place at Southborough:

1) Air conditioning in 20 classrooms - more than any other local school

2) Uniform adaptations (i) - short trousers permitted

3) Uniform adaptations (ii) - no blazers or ties (this week)

4) Postponed Sports Day

By implementing these measures, we are able to operate a normal school day and "live" one of our key values: Resilience.

Thank you for your support,

Mr N. Smith

Headteacher
