You need to call the council and the police yourself if the school isn't. If enough people complain then something will be done! That is downright dangerous!
They had a blitz at our school last year and there was tickets being written all over the place. I walk every day due to the congestion at our school (that and I live a 5 min walk away so I'd be super lazy to drive lol) and see some parents dropping their kids off in the worst places and if they only went 20 metres up the road it would be much safer.
Yep, all of the above, I would be calling the council, the police and also maybe your local paper? Get them to run a story on it... that might stir the local council / police station etc to act ....
thanks everyone! I was feeling a like I was making something outta nothing when I gave someone a dirty look yesterday afternoon but its good to know others feel this is the wrong thing for them to be doing!
Been busy today so will write something up tonight and will be sending it to everyone I can think of!
As a teacher this is one of our pet peeves and it happens all the time. We were constantly trying to get something done and last year eventually got council to send a ranger out and book people which has helped for a while. At one school I taught at the principal put the numberplates of those illegally parked in the newsletter each week LOL Not many principals have the balls to do that sadly!!
Yeah it happens at our school at the start of the year (prep parents) except they park in the drop kiss area. Which is supposed to be continually moving. So about March every year after many notices have gone out the Principal gets a parking officer to come out and guess what everyone starts obeying the signs
