Road Safety

We are getting concerned again about the safety issues in the morning at the Baston Road and West Common Road entrances.Firstly, at the Baston Road entrance students often cross both lanes of this busy road near the East Lodge gate and should cross the roadone lane at a time using the island opposite the Media Zone gate. Also students getting off the bus in Baston Road tend to just walk out infront of the traffic expecting the cars to stop. This also happens in West Common Road when students cross the road.Secondly, at both entrances parents are dropping off students inside the school grounds where staff park. Parents are not permitted todrop off their child on the school site unless there are exceptional circumstances.Please could you ensure you child is aware of the safety procedures highlighted above and please ensure when dropping off your child atthe school you do not drive on to the school site. Thank you.
