The security guard will be in place as of next week, please be aware you will not be able to enter the car park unless you are registered disabled and the driver is exiting the car to collect your child. No other drivers will be allowed into the car park. We would expect you to avoid using the car park at all other times, including nursery pick ups. 

In order to keep children and adults safe in and around our car park parents will not be able to use the car park between the hours of 8.00-9.15, and 2.15-3.30.
We would also expect parents to avoid using the carpark at all other times as well as those specified above.
Only those blue badge holders WHO NEED TO EXIT THEIR CAR with or for their children will be able to gain entry at these times, otherwise they will have to park outside of the school*.
Disabled badges will need to be up to date and clearly on display. The drivers will be asked who the disabled person is and whether they are leaving the car. Please do not be offended by this, the security guard will simply be following agreed procedures to make access to our car park, fair, safe, and reasonable.
All other cars will not be allowed into the schools and will be refused entry at the specified times.


SECURITY:There will be a security guard in place starting in a few weeks time.

After an initial period of twice daily supervision the guard will be there on random days, especially rainy ones.
This delay in implementation gives you all consultation time to respond to this health and safety initiative. We are listening and welcome your thoughts, ideas, or queries. Please contact Mr Fielder through the office or via the website. In the meantime please do not use the car park unless you qualify to under the instructions detailed above.
Many thanks.
Board of Directors, Sandy Hill Academy.
 
*For example there is no entry to those disabled drivers who are dropping off children who walk by themselves from the car to the school, or it is an able bodied adult who will be getting out and accompanying the children or seeing a teacher.
