Better known as a Lollipop man or lady, Wardens can stop traffic to help anyone cross the road, not only children.
The role of a School Crossing Patrol Warden
The Council provide these patrols as part of its efforts to improve road safety.
Wardens are on duty twice each day, this is usually for :
- 30 minutes before the start of the school day
- 30 minutes after the end of the school day
Wardens receive:
- training to a high standard
- regular visits from their supervisors
This ensures safety standards are being maintained.
Sites without School Crossing Patrols
If a warden can't attend a site, or one becomes vacant, the Council has a team of reserve wardens to provide cover.
Sometimes we can’t provide cover, for example:
- at short notice
- if the regular warden will be absent for some time.
In these events, we will inform any local schools as soon as possible.
