As you say AOG, their job is to teach and supervise inside the school - they haven't the time, much less the inclination to go out and start arguments with irate parents.
I think the notion of getting parents to do it is a seriously bad move.
Volunteers in this sort of area attract all the little Hitlers and busybodies - it will all end in tears.

I think this is an excellent idea. I heard it discussed on the Today Program this morning and its got to be worth a try.
These stupid parents that put their own childrens lives at risk, along with all the other kids need to be brought to book, and I personally couldn't give a tinkers cuss whether they get a ticket from a Parking Warden or another parent or Teacher
Good on the local Council for coming up with the idea ! A bit of lateral thinking thinking never goes amiss.

Local Authorities in some areas now rely on volunteers to staff Libraries.
But lets not be sidetracked into a discussion about the Tories savage cuts !
All schools have PTA's, so if this pilot in Thurrock is a success, lets offer it up to other schools and see what happens.
I have driven past at least 4 schools today, at chucking-out time, and all had problems with the parking of parents cars.

We had terrible problems with parents parking dangerously. Notes home had no effect. Sometimes senior staff would go out to reason with the offenders, limited effect. Once, a child was knocked over (not badly hurt) by a distracted parent driving off carelessly - more letters home, assemblies to try to get the pupils to influence their parents. It worked for a limited time - but even then, not with all parents.
Baldric, before teaching time starts all the staff not on duty in the playground to control arriving children are in a morning staff meeting, getting notices about last minute changes, events happening that day, little Johnny or Ali needing an eye kept on him because grandma has died and being given details of which lessons they have to cover in their non-contact period because a colleague has rung in sick. After the close of lesson bell they are usually involved with disciplinary issues, departmental meetings etc., etc.. I know staff are not having their classroom time affected before and after school, but it is time still being spent in the process of education. :)
