Road Safety and Parking
Please can we once again ask you to speak to your children about being safe and considerate when cycling and walking to and from school. We are receiving numerous reports of students crossing in front of cars without looking and being abusive to road users. Please discuss this with your children especially regarding stopping at junctions and wearing headphones, which may mean they are unaware of traffic noises. Students should also not be acting in a dangerous manner i.e. pushing friends near the road as this may result in a serious accident.
Parking at pickup time is another safety issue. Neighbours have been in touch re parents parking inconsiderately and blocking their drives whilst waiting for their children. Please park away from school and ask your child to walk a short distance to your car. Please remember that this is a residential area and parking should be as per the high way code.

Rail disruption this weekend
ASLEF (The Train Drivers Union) are taking strike action between 29 January and 6 February. Chiltern Railways services are heavily impacted by this strike action as well as services of other train operators. Due to an overtime and rest day work ban, journeys from Monday 29 January to Friday 2 February and Tuesday 6 February will be affected and a reduced timetable will be in operation and services will finish earlier than usual. We request customers to check before travelling during this period.
On Saturday 3 February, due to engineering works, the Chiltern main line will be closed between Princes Risborough and London and a heavily reduced service will be in operation.
On Sunday 4 February and Monday 5 February, no Chiltern Railways services will be in operation due to the ongoing industrial action.
Normal service is expected to resume on Wednesday 7 February.
Please check any journeys before travelling and consider alternative travel arrangements.

Year 11 Careers Interviews
Last week Year 11 students had the opportunity to experience a “mock interview” with volunteers and employers from the local area. This was the first time that the majority of students had experienced a “real life” interview scenario which will help prepare them for the world of work.
Thank you to all those employers who took time out of their busy schedules to join us in this important event.
