Please note that when arriving at the School :

Parking is a problem at most schools and can be avoided if parents park sensibly. We have, therefore, some basic requirements which we ask all parents with children at our School to adhere to when dropping off/picking up or generally visiting during School hours :

  • PARKING SENSIBLY ENSURES YOUR CHILD’S SAFETY.  
  • Please do not park outside driveways of residents. 
  • There is a yellow lined ‘No Parking’ and school bus stop area outside the school. This restriction should be observed at all times
  • Parking on the road opposite the yellow lined area is also to be avoided at all times during School hours.

All parents are requested to observe an unofficial one-way system in Headland Road to try to reduce congestion. All cars coming to School should enter at the Barton Road end and exit at the church end.  

Please remember local residents need access to their houses. Mill Lane is a private road and should not be used for parking. Please do not park opposite the School under any circumstances.
