Road Safety and Parking

We have had reports of vehicles parking across driveways when dropping off and collecting children from school: please respect our neighbours.

We have also received concerns about children’s safety when crossing roads; there have been occasions where they are not looking both ways or trying to cross between parked cars and can’t always be seen.  If your child walks to school please have a conversation at home tonight: where are the sensible crossing places on their route to school?  What procedures do you expect them to follow on the journey?
