• Walkley Wardens Make An Impact

  Thu 26 Sep 2019 Mr Wallis
  Thank you once again for your encouragement and support for our Walkley Wardens. You will be delighted to hear that after issuing 6 Polite Notices this morning our Wardens only issued 2 this afternoon. Thank you for your support and well done Wardens. 

  

• Walkley Wardens On Watch!

  Thu 26 Sep 2019 Mr Wallis

  Many thanks parents for your fabulous feedback and encouragement for our new Walkley Wardens who this morning accompanied Amy Lees PCSO on patrol, looking for inconsiderate and dangerous parking. In total 6 Polite notices were issued to drivers who left their car in an inconsiderate or illegal space this morning.

   

  We have overwhelming support from our parents, pupils, staff and governors and we will continue to challenge (politely) those who continue to put lives at risk in the name of lateness or laziness. 

   

  Many thanks for your support on this very important matter.
