Snow and ice conditions will impact thousands of children across the north and north-east as Storm Bert is due to hit on Saturday.

Primary schools, high schools and nurseries have closed to pupils, with a number of other classes facing a delayed start to the day.

For the past week, children have been forced to stay at home as conditions prevent schools for opening, or closing early.

Conditions will worsen tomorrow as Storm Bert hits the Highlands, Aberdeenshire and Moray this weekend, with an amber warning issued for parts of central and southern Highlands.
