The School Safe Environment Zone for Wanborough Primary is now in force.

This is to make travelling to and from school safer for the whole school community and for neighbouring residents.

It is part of a School Safe Environment Zone initiative from Swindon Borough Council.

SBC have produced 2 booklets explaining aspects of the scheme. (click images to read them)

We encourage children and parents to walk to school if possible and we have produced a 5 minute walking routes map.

The '5 minute' zone on this map is approximate and all routes shown are either roads with pavements or footpaths. Copies of this map with further information are available from the school office.

Children can use scooters to come to school, but must be very careful around the school gates and must get off the scooter before going through the gate to the right of the entrance to the bike shed.

Pedestrians should enter by the gate to the left of the vehicle access.

Please remember:

• Entry to the school is 5mph.
• Parking should not be to the detriment of local residents.
• Parking or driving which is of a dangerous nature will be reported to the police.
• Please could we ask parents to follow the unofficial one-way system. However, this is not law and other motorists may or may not be aware of what our parents do, but that as it stands is their right and whilst aggressive or dangerous driving is not acceptable the unofficial one-way system is unofficial.
• Please could parents should inform family/friends who occasionally transport, of the local arrangements.
• The school car park is not to be used for parking or dropping off. Those who are allowed to park on the school site must hold a disabled badge or been given special authorisation by the Head.

Considerations:

• Park in other locations around the village and walk or scoot to school. (Please see Park and Stride leaflet).
• Share lifts on occasions.
