@cesur here is a draft informal representation:
Dear London Borough of Bexley,
I challenge liability on the ground that the alleged contravention did not occur. At the time in question my wife was dropping off our seven year old daughter to school, therefore the vehicle was not parked but was momentarily stopped so allow assisted alighting of a vulnerable road user.
As soon as our daughter was safely handed over to the school, my wife returned to the car and departed without delay.
As the restriction in question is a waiting restriction and not a stopping restriction, no contravention occurred and the PCN must be cancelled.
Yours faithfully,
Send this via the council website and keep a screenshot of the confirmation page. The council will likely send you a fob-off rejection, but as long as you stick it out to the tribunal I don't see how you could lose, especially given the complete lack of any observation time.
Thanks. Portal appeal information page doesn't open, keeps redirecting. Once this is sorted I will appeal. Sent an email to council about the issue.
