Sustrans schools cycling project
The Sustrans school project helps young people to travel actively and safely to school.
We have a programme of activities that help to increase children’s physical activity, reduce congestion and improve safety around schools. There are national competitions which schools can participate in increase active travel journeys, such as the Big Pedal.
We have brilliant resources, incentive schemes, guides and events to help all schools take part in activities to encourage active travel. Sustrans delivers assemblies and classroom sessions alongside outdoor practical lessons such as learn to ride, cycle maintenance and bike breakfasts.
