Can students, parents and carers please be aware that the School Crossing Patrol site on The Avenue in Seaham will be unmanned for the time being, and ensure extra care is taken when crossing the busy road.
We have been informed that while the service was originally stood down from duties during the coronavirus lockdown, it is being reinstated across the county as schools go back.
However the crossing point on the Avenue that serves our students in the area will remain unstaffed owing to staff absence and a lack of relief crossing patrol provision for the location.
We would urge people to take extra care when crossing, and hopefully the situation is resolved quickly.
