It was initially expected to reopen on Tuesday (November 19), but it has today been announced that Monday (November 25) will now be the earliest that the academy will reopen.

The academy provides updates to parents and if it needs to remain closed on Monday or for a longer period it will be communicating with them directly.

Orion Academy was established in 2020 before moving into a new building in September 2021.
