Safer Travel
Speed
The speed limit in the village is 30 miles per hour. However the road conditions and presence of children of school/pre-school age necessitates much slower speeds around the area of the school.
Parking
Please park considerately and do not block driveways/entrances to property.
Please note that the lane running alongside the church yard is a driveway leading to houses.
Parking along Draughton Road can be a particular problem for us at Maidwell Primary and the local residents. Please see our additional page on this concern.
Park and Walk
There are a variety of locations in the village where you can park easily and then walk to school including the pub car park on the main road.
Drop & Go
From 8.50am every morning a member of staff is on duty on the playground. You may leave your children safely in the care of the school from this time onwards.
Escorting your child to and from the playground
Small children cannot be seen from many vehicles. The cars parked around the school adds to the danger. It is vital for the safety of the children that you escort your child to the school gate.
