The gates to a school's car park will be closed while the children leave after fears of possible accidents.

The front car park of John Bramston School in Spinks Lane, Witham, are being kept closed until 3.15pm.

The move follows fears by the headteacher of accidents happening because of the congestion when parents came to pick up their children at then end of the day.

Parents have been asked to park in the overflow car park to the sports centre in Bridge Street to avoid the congestion.

The scheme has been implemented with a view to becoming permanent.
