School Crossing Patrols

School Crossing Patrols provide a great service, helping children get across busy roads on foot on their walk to school, and are hugely respected by the school and wider community, including local drivers. The children get to know their patrol person, providing another form of interaction on their way to school.

Schools recruit people to be School Crossing Patrols and then contact the SCC Road Safety Partnership who will train the Patrols and supply them with the necessary resources.

If you think your school needs a School Crossing Patrol, please contact Nicola Hensley at the Somerset Road Safety Partnership on 0844 980 0028 This may also be something your school identifies through its travel plan.
