School visitor parking permits

School visitor parking permits are available to schools located within a resident parking zone.

They allow school visitors to park their vehicle in a permit holders only bay within the resident parking zone shown on the card/booklet for up to three hours. They can also park in a 'shared use' bay - that is, a bay where permit holders and motorists displaying a valid pay and display ticket can park. The permits cannot be used by school employees.

The permits cost £15 for a pack of 10 cards. Schools wishing to purchase visitor parking permits must present a letter on headed paper confirming that the request is being made on behalf of the school and stating the number of books required. It should be signed and dated by someone with authority at the school, i.e. the head teacher or their secretary.

You can purchase school visitor parking permits in person or by post. See 'Where to apply for parking and access permits' for further information. If you have any permit related questions, please telephone 020 8430 2000.
