Default Feeblest excuse heard for closing a school?

I'll start the ball rolling. Heard from a Headteacher from the south on
Radio 5 Live this afternoon:-
"The toilets might freeze"
Let's hope he doesn't teach physics! Presumably the toilets are outside
and
they haven't heard of insulation. Even if it had been -10 every night this
week that still wouldn't have happened!
Doh!

Well on Radio Norfik the other morning, the excuse given by one teacher was
that as well as getting the kids into school, they had to *guarantee* to get
the kids home. One wonders why they don't close the school every day as,
let's face it, they can't guarantee a pupil isn't going to get runover once
they step outside the school gates :-(

Cheers
