A primary school I'm interested in for my children hasn't got a fence on one side of its playground. The playground spills onto a large field/common and there's a busy road about 100 yards away. Otherwise it's a quiet enough spot on the outskirts of London.
The head teacher says that the fence will be in place by September but for complicated reasons, this has been an ongoing process for many years. Teachers patrol the boundary at break times and children don't tend to go outside as far as I can see. My particular concern is more about intruders than escapees!
Would you send your child to a school with an open playground like this?
