Click here to learn more about recommended improvements that can be made in schools and by your Parent Council to reduce the costs asked over and above just sending your child to school. This was devised by a working parent group as part of the Glasgow Parent Council Forum and in partnership with the Child Poverty Action Group.

Due to Covid resitrctions, school staff are now actively managing the lost property at the school. Any items that have not been clollected by the children, will be put out at the community entrance at the end of the month for parents to uplift.

Please be aware of the responsibility as parents to park safely and considerately around the vicinity of our School. Points that have been emphasised are as follows:

• Please do not park on the grassed area on Ashmore Road. This is a recreational green space.
• Please do not mount the pavement to park.
• Please obey the restrictions on the road markings.
• Please park in the surrounding area and walk to school (refer to map).
• Please reduce your speed when driving along Monreith Road, Friarton Road, Mochrum Road, Ashmore Road and all others roads within the vicinity of the school. The last thing we want is for one of the children to get hurt, or any other pedestrians on this route.
• Newlands Tennis Club are supportive of kids coming through the carpark to access the school. Parking in their carpark should however only be reserved for members of the tennis club.

The map below highlights in orange suggested parking areas that are only a few minutes walk from the school. Consider leaving earlier to allow yourself time to park in these areas and then walk the remaining distance.



Should any parent require access to disabled parking, please notify the school to make arrangements.
