Schools in Akrotiri to Remain Closed on Monday

Schools in Akrotiri – the Primary School, Kindergarten, and the Environmental Education Center – will remain closed on Monday, March 9th, 2026, as a precautionary measure. The decision affects teachers, students, and all staff of the schools. The tele-education system has been activated for the two schools. The Educational Psychology Service of the Ministry of Education, Sports and Youth provides support to students, teachers, and parents/guardians via telephone. This decision comes during a period of heightened geopolitical tension, with reports of attacks between Israel and Iran, and questions regarding the situation in British bases. There are also reports of drone use in attacks on Akrotiri bases.
