What is a School Travel Plan?
A School Travel Plan is a document produced by pupils, parents, school staff and governors, in partnership with the community and Sheffield City Council, to manage its methods and resources for getting children to and from school safely. All schools must have a plan by 2010.
The main reason for writing a School Travel Plan is to reduce the number of cars on the school run and encourage other modes of transport such as walking, cycling and public transport. However, this is by no means their only aim. They should also include realistic and achievable aims that will improve children’s health and safety, education, the school environment and help in combating social exclusion. Funding is available to help deliver the travel plan.
