I'm sure everyone would have something to say if a child had an accident on the way to school( which is the reason as to why the bikes have been banned)!! i think the road around the school is more of a problem, where parents double park or park illegally. I feel that the school are damned if they do and damned if they dont.

I'm sure that everyone would have somthing to say if a child had an accident on the way to school whilst walking! so should we ban walking? As you said the road around the school is a problem so ask all parents to use the risca rugby club car park which will solve the problem altogether. I remember children riding bikes to school even when i was a child, and other schools still allow it. If theres such a safety risk why will it be suitable for the whole of year 6 to bring their bikes to school for 3 weeks while they do a safety cycling course, but its not safe for the rest of the year???
