Background
There have been several incidents of drivers speeding past the school at times when the children are arriving, leaving, playing. If a child managed to leave the school grounds or a car veers off the road the consequences could be catastrophic. Multiple accidents have happened in the past 12months where cars have been turning onto the school driveway and have been hit by speeding vehicles. The risk posed to the children attending the school is too great and the consequences could be unimaginable.
