Parking for school Drop off and Pick Up |
||
A number of schools have been in touch recently regarding concerns regarding parking around schools.
A specific example of this is that Painsley Catholic Academy in Cheadle has expressed that parents are not always parking considerately or safely during busy times and that this is causing some conflict between parents and residents of the area. It is also acknowledge that some residents have used their vehicles to block access points, or make temporary parking more difficult.
These issues are in no way exclusive to Painsley Catholic Academy and can be applied to pretty much every community in Staffordshire and across the country where schools exist within our neighbourhoods.
Though we understand that parking can be a point of contention and that in the vicinity of schools, there can be times of the day that become flash points, the safety of Children and the wider public is the priority!
Police will attend where there are specific incidents where there may be driving offences reported or incidents relating to Road Traffic Act. The wider picture is that if you have concerns over general parking and access to public amenities, this is an issue that needs to be reported to your local council and or Local Authority.
In the meantime please be mindful of your driving and parking in and around the vicinity of schools.
Please see the attached poster that Painsley Academy have kindly provided.
