DEANS HIGH SCHOOL TEMPORARY POOL CLOSURE

The movable pool floor at Deans High School has been out of use for some time due to a mechanical fault. We’ve been working closely with our partners at West Lothian Council and specialist maintenance contractors to arrange the necessary repairs.

Due to additional issues identified during ongoing repair works, the swimming pool at Deans Community High School will now remain closed until Monday 27 April.

While carrying out the scheduled maintenance, specialist divers identified further damage beneath the boom wall. As this area is critical to the safe operation of the pool, these repairs will be carried out immediately.

See below for the most up-to-date relocation arrangements which will remain in place until Monday 27th April when we hope to reopen. 

We sincerely apologise for the extended disruption and appreciate your continued patience while these essential works are completed.
