PARENTS are increasing calls for a crossing at a school after a pupil was hit by a car.
Plans to install a zebra crossing outside Heyford Park Free School were dashed earlier this year due to a tree that needed pruning, although the county council says this issue will be resolved by the summer holidays.
Sigrid MacDonald said her 11-year-old son was hit by a car outside the school last month, suffering bruising and a twisted ankle, but no serious injuries.
Ms MacDonald said: “There have been plenty of near accidents on the road.
“If it would have been a smaller kid, I don’t even want to think about what could’ve happened.
