Pick Up/Drop Off System
Visitors Car Park - Claremont Road Drop Off / Pick Up
Please note we are at capacity for next year and therefore not accepting any further requests for use of this provision.
Families using the pick-up/drop-off system will be asked to drive up Claremont Road and turn into the Admin Claremont Road car park entrance (entrance with barrier). Parents must then leave via the ramp - turning right onto Claremont Road to keep traffic flowing. Please see the map below.
By registering and using this system you agree to the follow this procedure in a safe and permitted manner.
Please note
• Drop off will be supported by school staff until 8.40am.
• The barrier will not be raised into the car park until 7.55am each morning and 2.40pm each afternoon. Please do not park and wait in front of the barrier as this prevents other visitors from accessing the car park.
• Drop off and pick up times are subject to availability.
• If children are late being collected, they will be moved to the School Office and parents are requested to park in the car park and collect children from the office.
• The system is dependent on the good will of local residents and the Parish. Blocking up the road by arriving too early or not being respectful road users will jeopardise the continuation of the system.
• There is a speed limit of 5mph in the car park.
• These procedures may be modified as needed in our ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of our children. To ensure the continued success of this system, we ask that you understand and agree to the following:
• You will need to drive to the designated point at the front of the queue where a member of the JCP team will be waiting to ensure that your child/ren get into school or the car safely.
• You are requested to wait close to the vehicle in front minimising gaps and therefore maximising space for other cars.
• Your child/ren should only exit/enter the car once the car is at the front of the queue and it is stationary.
• Your child/ren should have all bags/instruments/lunches ready with them before the car stops (drop off).
• Any adult collecting/picking up your child/ren will remain in the car.
• Your child/ren must be able to exit/enter the car without assistance and be able to un/fasten their seatbelt themselves. If not possible, you will need to use the main College car park and escort your child over to school, until the time your child is able to do all of the above independently. At that point you will submit a new request if you wish to use the Drop Off Pick Up system again.
• That for this to work well there must be a steady and continuous flow of vehicles around the system and understand the need to keep to my allocated times.
• There is no possibility to park in a space.
• That to make the process as efficient as possible you will not be able to talk to staff about any issues concerning their children at these times. If you do need to have this discussion you will make alternative arrangements to do so.
• That if your child/ren are not collected by 3.20pm they will be moved to the School Office and you will need to park at the main College car park and collect your child/ren from the office.
• You will need to inform the school office as early as possible if you are not using the system any more or need to request a change.
• Share this information with any other person you have authorised to collect your child. • That drop off and pick up times are subject to availability.
• That these procedures may be modified as needed in our ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of our children. Thank you for your understanding and help in ensuring a safe and continued drop off and pick up system to support all our families who make use of this service.
