Children
School Crossing Patrollers
The city council’s school crossing patrol service has been
assisting children to cross the road safely for more than 50 years.
Whilst school crossing patrols are provided, parents are still
responsible for making sure their children get to school
safely.
Information for parents
Remember if you are crossing with your child at a patrol
site:
- Wait at the kerb
- Do not follow the patrol out into the road
- Walk across only when the patrol tells you
- Always walk in front of the patrol, not behind
Information for drivers
Remember, if you are approaching a patrol site:
- Slow down and be prepared to stop
- Stop at the patrol's signal - failure to stop can result in 3
points on your license and up to a £1,000 fine
- Be patient - a child's life could be at stake
