The school that my youngest goes to has a maximum catchment size of 480m
Family sends child 1 to tiny catchment school when they live 300m away. 4 years later they move a bazillion miles away to be in catchment of the secondary school they want in a couple of years. Then child 2 gets in to tiny catchment primary on the sibling rule but has a bazillion mile journey for 7 years.
I just think it's weird how people think the road harm, stress and pollution that's caused by driving to a school is OK in the name of personally saving them a bit of time and convenience. Says a lot about the mindset in the UK.
I'll darken the lungs of my own children, myself and and local residents all in the name of my own convenience etc etc.
The school that my youngest goes to has a maximum catchment size of 480m. Who really needs to drive that far? There's all sorts of fuckers not turning the engine off outside the gates in their Qashquai then proceeding to drive onto the footpath to do a 6 point turn in a narrow road whilst there's children crossing.
