Langer Primary Academy

Road Safety

The entrance to the school is very busy at the beginning and end of the day and care must be taken. A road crossing patrol is available for children before and after school.

The area outside any school is often congested at the beginning and end of the school day. ‘Keep Clear’ markings are provided on the road to maintain levels of safety. Motorists who ignore the yellow markings are breaking the law and putting children’s lives at risk.

Parents who do bring their child/children to the school by car are therefore asked to comply with the following guidelines:

  • Please DO NOT use the school car park. This can put both children and adults at risk particularly as the pavement passes right across the car park exit. Use is restricted to staff and visitors only.
  • Please park away from the immediate vicinity of the school, using parking space on the side roads and walking the short distance to and from the school.
  • Consider using a rota so that each car carries as many children as possible.
  • The school operates a policy of equal opportunities and extends a welcome to all members of the community, including those with a disability. We can grant exemption from the above ruling, providing a Car Park Pass is visible, where appropriate. Please contact the School Office.

Cycling

Older Children have the opportunity to learn to cycle safely. Cycles left at the school should be padlocked as we cannot take responsibility for their safety.
