"If you don't have to make a journey then don't, because it's chaos out on the roads."
Bexhill schools also found themselves hit by the blizzard like conditions early in the morning.
St Peter and St Paul Primary School, Pebsham Primary School, Bexhill High and St Richards Catholic College were all closed.

"Our advice to parents is to keep listening to local radio broadcasts for the latest updates as schools first priority is to get the message out via this route.
"In adverse weather conditions, the headteacher will have the safety of their children as their number one priority and will also be considering other issues such as staffing, transport, heating and catering."
