Cycle training
Schools
Many senior schools insist on their pupils having gained a formal cycling qualification before allowing them to cycle to school. We offer cycle training to our junior schools' Year 5 and 6 pupils. Children who take part and pass the test at the end will be awarded a National Cycling Certificate. The courses are often important for achieving targets set out in School Travel Plans. To find out more about cycle training, and, if you are the nominated member of staff responsible for cycle training liason at your school, please note the following:
After submission and approval of the School Travel Plan, primary schools can obtain free cycle training for up to twelve Year Five or Year Six pupils. In order that we can meet demand from as many of our junior schools as possible, courses need to be booked as early in the school year as possible. If additional funding becomes available schools can apply for subsequent courses.
