Drop-off

Late Arrivals

Any child arriving after 9.00 am will need to enter school from the front gates in Schoolfield Road. Such children will be marked absent and parents will be asked to complete a ‘Late Arrival Slip’.

Getting to School

We recommend that you and your child walk to and from school. There are many benefits to walking; it is healthier than travelling by car, it improves the safety of pedestrians and road-users and it respects nearby residents and parking regulations.

Cycling to School

Children should not bring bicycles to school without the Headteacher’s permission. Children in Reception to Year 5 are only permitted to cycle to school if accompanied by an adult.

Parking and Safety

If you do need to travel by car, please consider pupil safety when driving. Please show consideration of others when parking your car, both to other parents and the school’s neighbours. 

Parents are not permitted entry into either of the staff car parks.

Please note: No dogs, except guide dogs, are permitted on the school grounds.
