End of the School Day
Students are expected to leave the premises quickly and sensibly and are supervised by members of staff who are at the various departure points. Parents/Carers who meet their daughters are asked to not congregate around any of our exit gates and to maintain a reasonable distance from one another. Parents/Carers who meet their daughters are asked to take particular care if they come by car. The school grounds are not open to parents/carers for waiting or parking as they are not big enough and parking is not allowed immediately outside the school gates. We would ask parents not to park on the double yellow lines as this causes great disruption to the flow of traffic in Plashet Grove and is in direct contravention of the law.
