Glossop SNT - School Engagement/Event

PCSO Buller of Glossop YET, PCSO Jones of Hadfield SNT including Move More Glossop as well as members of GAST, with 6 pupils from the school breakfast club at Dinting Church of England (VA) Primary School, Dinting Vale, Glossop, completed a parking awareness event on the A57 outside the school this morning, Wednesday 13th November.

🚗 This event was the second part of a week of action in relation to speeding, parking and pollution outside and near to Dinting School. The 6 students were split into 2 groups along with adults and were using parking tickets created by the school council themselves (see pic attached). The event took place between 8.30 am until 8.50 am today.

🚙 The exercise was to identify any vehicles that were poorly or inconsiderately parked near to the school, on the A57 at Dinting Vale. 

🎫 10 tickets were issued by the pupils this morning to vehicles parked on either side of the school. These, the pupils believed, were poorly parked and obstructing the pavement.

✅ The message from the young people today was highlighting poor or inconsiderate parking near our schools. It is hoped that their actions today will have encouraged drivers to think how and where they park when near schools.

Thanks once again to the students involved and the school for allowing and encouraging the event to take place, as well as Move More Glossop and the 2 ladies from GAST for assisting and being involved.
