Travelplan

We have a School Travel Plan to help us:

To continuously assess ideas and investigate new options for sustainable transport; involving pupils and parents in the concept and promotions; eg. Walking bus.
To reduce the number of car journeys to school by encouraging parents and children to adopt alternative sustainable transport. This will reduce congestion and parking outside the school.
To increase the number of children walking/scooting/cycling for the morning journeys.
To work with the Hertfordshire Council Highways and local residents to ensure that the village is a safe place for parents and children to walk/cycle to and from school.
To encourage parents and children to consider the healthy choice of transport to school.
To improve the children’s knowledge of personal safety when walking and cycling e.g. Teaching Road safety, Walk Safe and Bikeability.
To incorporate the School Travel Plan into the School Development Plan.
To improve access to the school for parents dropping off and collecting their children.
To encourage staff to consider more sustainable transport where possible (this may be difficult as many staff live far from the school).
