Dear Parents/Carers
Important Reminder: Safe Parking Procedures at Pick-Up Time
The safety of our pupils is our top priority at Strood Academy. We understand that pick-up times can be busy, and we appreciate your cooperation in ensuring a safe environment for everyone.
This letter serves as a gentle reminder regarding responsible parking practices during pick-up hours.
We kindly request that all parents and carers:
- Avoid blocking driveways: This can significantly hinder access for residents and emergency vehicles.
- Refrain from parking unsafely: This includes double parking, parking on yellow lines, or in designated disabled bays without a valid permit.
- Be mindful of pedestrian crossings: Please park in a way that allows our pupils clear visibility and a safe pathway when crossing the road.
We acknowledge that finding a convenient parking space might be challenging at times. However, prioritising the safety of our children is paramount.
We encourage you to consider alternative pick-up arrangements if possible, such as:
- Using public transport
- Arriving by foot or bike
- Walking a short distance
We firmly believe that by working together, we can create a safe and efficient pick-up environment for everyone at Strood Academy.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and understanding.
Yours faithfully
Mr Jon Richardson | Principal
