Any idea why it is only the afternoon when the other schools streets are morning as well?

The morning drop off has been staggered and the kids are allowed to head straight to their class rooms so the mornings are much less busy which may be why they've gone for afternoon only. In the afternoon despite a staggered pick up it really is very busy and with people trying to socially distance it was becoming dangerous as cars/vans sped down that bit of the road.

So, that's just more traffic pushed onto Upland Road? How very Southwark. I walk my kids to and from school and they go through the gates on Upland Road. Genius.


I'm not defending parents who need or choose to drive their kids to school (one classmate is driven from Dawsons Heights every morning and afternoon!) but this is just nonsense and will directly affect the children using Upland Road.


Is there no one in Southwark's traffic planning division that knows what the f**k they're doing??

    • As posted elsewhere Jojm is a superb plasterer, highly experienced and very good. And will either just get on with the job or, if you wish, have a good chat with you - he's a Dubliner so very friendly! I have either used him directly (once, for a biggish job, a couple of rooms, insulated plaster boards and finishing) and twice for neighbouring landlord where I arranged and saw his work completed expertly and efficiently. Recommended. He loves dogs too. If relevant...
    • I agree. Superb plasterer, very experienced and very good. Have either used him directly (once, for a biggish job, boards and finishing) and twice for neighbourinf landlord where I arranged and saw the work completed excellently.
    • How about we go straight to the source then if you think it's questionable: Here's Unite Group's annual report: https://www.unitegroup.com/annual-report-and-accounts-2024 Download the PDF and you'll find the 97.5% occupancy rate. You know a lot of these news sources exist because digging through annual reports is laborious and not immediately accessible to the masses. They're reporting on what Unite Group, a public company, is reporting. It's making something more digestible. They're not just making up numbers. They'd end up without much business if they were. PBSA is a big industry. Here's another take (though a year older) from Cushman and Wakefield: https://www.cushmanwakefield.com/en/united-kingdom/insights/uk-student-accommodation-report  Like CBRE, they're also reporting supply shortages. Again, to be occupied by students.  
    • I know they eat food as they get a Tesco delivery every week. So they must have food scraps.
