We ask for everyone’s commitment to safe driving and parking around school.
Please do not: -
- stop or park on double yellow lines,
- stop in the middle of the road,
- stop or park on the zig zag lines outside of school
- block the school entrance,
- obstruct dropped kerbs meant for pushchairs,
- obstruct side roads such as Vivian Close.
Parking opposite the school is particularly dangerous for families crossing the road.
We work closely with the Council and Police, and fines may be issued. Any person of the community can photograph inconsiderate or dangerous parking and submit a report to police or the council.
Every parent signs a home / school agreement with our school - if a member of staff asks you to move your car, we will not accept verbal aggression towards us and we will expect you to move your car and park safely.
Our school vehicle gate closes between 8am and 5pm. This is for the safety of our children on site as many attend before and after school clubs. You must not enter school premises, in a vehicle, between the hours of 8am and 5pm. Do not tail gate staff coming in to school - they will ask you to leave school site and park sensibly. Again, we will not accept verbal aggression is you are asked to park your vehicle off the school premises between these hours.
Thank you for helping us protect our community. We do know that most of our parents care deeply about the safety of the children and follow rules about parking. We are very thankful to the majority of our school community who take the safety of our children seriously and park responsibly.
