It is a top priority. We are asking that the whole school community work together to keep our pupils safe.
Drop off and collection times are busy, therefore we all need to be mindful of children's safety. In order to achieve this we are asking that you do the following:
All children to wear high vis vests. They are free from RSA. The school has provided all children with one. The Parents' Association have provided spare ones also.
All pedestrians to cross from the footpath to the pedestrian gate on the pedestrian crossing only. When walking up from the village walk on the footpath down to the pedestrian crossing. Please do not cut through the car park.
Walk to school if possible.
When your child has been dropped off safely, please move off as safely and swiftly as possible to avoid traffic congestion.
Please do not park on the pedestrian crossing. It needs to remain clear for children to cross safely.
Please do not drive on the pedestrian crossing when children are walking on it.
At busy times to aid the swift movement of traffic please turn left when exiting the car park.
The children will be let out in a staggered manner at 14:30- 1st class, then 2nd class, then 3rd class, then 4th 5th and 5th/6th.
Please arrive at collection time- i.e if your child is for example in 3rd class, please allow parents to collect children from the younger classes first. Parking too early is causing a back log.
Staff will be supervising the pupils when they enter the yard.
Teacher's will continually speak to their class about road safety.

Please let’s all work together to keep our pupils safe.
Many thanks for your cooperation on this very important matter.
