I THINK that Mrs Arthur and staff need to sit down and think hard and long on eco friendliness when banning the use of bicycles to and from school. They can quite easily get parents to take responsibility for the child as soon as they go outside the school gates, but to tear the cycle shed down to make way for cars is absolutely ludicrous. It would benefit the teachers etc. to maybe walk a little further to school by parking their cars outside at an appropriate place.

I wish the parents every success with their petition.
