Please park with courtesy to others and if you have a permit please display it as regular checks are carried out.  You will be asked to provide your vehicle registration number when you sign in at reception so that you can be contacted in an emergency.  You can leave also your contact telephone on view to help us. Overflow parking is permitted in the bus bay areas between 9.15am and 3.00pm pm only. Please do not leave your vehicle there outside this time as it will obstruct the school buses.
