Stop the Workplace Parking Levy: Don’t Rob Our Schools!

We the undersigned petition the council to Stop going ahead with the Workplace Parking Levy, which would force schools (and businesses) to pay for having staff car parking spaces. A school with only 50 spaces would have to pay about £27,000 a year to the council, robbing pupils of the funding they need to have a full education.

With rising energy prices and cuts in funding, schools are already stretched with what they can afford. If this tax on teachers goes ahead, it will deprive schools and their pupils even further.

What will schools be forced to end funding to next? Less teachers? Less textbooks? Less extracurricular activities like football clubs or instrument lessons? Something will have to go if the Council goes ahead with the Workplace Parking Levy.
