Royal Wedding - Attendance
Written by Schools IS Team
Schools should mark the day of the Royal Wedding as a Bank Holiday and not an enforced closure. This can be performed in SIMS .net as described below.
Downing Street announces bank holiday for Royal Wedding on 29th April
Downing Street spokesman:
"The Prime Minister welcomed today’s announcement by the Royal Household of the date for the marriage of Prince William and Ms. Middleton. It was agreed by Cabinet that the day will be marked by a Public Holiday. Public Holidays are devolved in Scotland. The Scottish Government will be making proposals to the Scottish Parliament shortly."
