Dozens of schools in Sheffield have shut their gates today due to heavy snowfall – here are all the ones we know so far.

An amber weather warning remains in place across South Yorkshire and much of England today (March 10) due to severe snow and plummeting temperatures overnight, set to cause major disruption on Sheffield's roads today.

Ahead of the predicted snowfall, more than a dozen schools told students to stay home for the day due to the perils of travelling in for pupils, parents and staff alike.
