A NUMBER of schools across the North West fell foul of the freezing weather this week.

Primary Schools at Newbuildings, Listress, Bready, Altishane, Artigarvan and Altinure were all forced to close on Monday after the weekend's snowfall.

St Cecilia's College and the Immaculate Conception College were two of three secondary schools in the Western Education and Library Board (WELB) that had to close due to the poor weather.
