Getting to School & Crossing Patrol

 CARS

There is no parking on site (only limited places for staff).  Please do not stop outside the school as there is no safe place for children to alight.  Be aware many roads around the school site are double yellow lines where you must not park.  The Elms public car park at the rear of the school usually has spaces and this is by far the safest place to park. 

Town Council are instigating carpark charges in the town's car parks, all will offer first 30 mins free but you must take a ticket from the machine.

 WALKING

It is recommended that young children are escorted into school as the traffic on New Road, although light, often moves quite fast.  There is a Crossing Patrol on College Road, which is a busy road with lorries and buses.  

 CROSSING PATROL INFORMATION LEAFLET - important information for parents and drivers.

 PERMISSION TO LEAVE SCHOOL SITE AT THE END OF THE SCHOOL DAY

At the end of school, all class teachers bring their classes on to the playground to meet their families.  If you want to give permission for your KS2 child to leave the school site alone, you must complete a permission form from the School Office. If we have not received your consent in this format, we will be unable to let your child leave school.

Please email the school office to request a Permission form - which will be sent to you via ParentMail to complete.

Please write to the class teacher if there any changes to your usual collection arrangements.

 BICYCLES

There are facilities for leaving bicycles in the school grounds but the Headteacher must be consulted before children cycle to school.  Children who cycle should have passed, or be taking, their Bikeability course, otherwise they should be accompanied by an adult cyclist.

 BUSES

 

IMPORTANT: Please visit Suffolk on Board for full details about SCC funded school travel as it is your NEAREST school (which may NOT be your CATCHMENT school) that you can have funded transport for. 

We strongly recommend that you check which school is your nearest suitable school on Nearest School Checker because this might not be your catchment area school.
