Cycle to School Week

Do you want to encourage your pupils to cycle to school more often, get healthier, reduce the amount of traffic outside your school at key times and protect the environment? If so, then get involved with Cycle to School Week!

Organised by the Bikeability Trust and Sustrans, they celebrated the fun and freedom of an eco friendly cycle commute, with thousands of families and schools across the nation.

They asked everyone to make a pledge to cycle more during the week, and beyond. Thanks to the pupils, parents, schools and staff who pledged and made the 2024 event a record breaking Cycle to School Week.

The schools resources are available all year round for schools to promote pedal power at any time.
