School Travel Plan News
School Travel Plan 2022
We have been awarded a Gold Travel Plan since 2010 as well as being the 2016 winner of the Primary and Secondary School of the Region (West) and our School Travel Plan Champion, Mrs Pielichaty, won the 2014 award for Inspiring Young London for West Region of London.
We use the Travel Plan to highlight issues in our school and surrounding roads and to give ourselves targets to improve the facilities at our school for both staff and pupils. These have included our new cycle shed for staff and visitors in 2021, situated behind the school kitchens; our playroad improvements with working Belisha Beacons in 2020; our weather station and air quality monitoring in 2019; the improvements to the pavements on Ashburnham Road by the zebra crossing in 2018; annual provision of cycle training, safer walking and scooting for years 2-6 as well as new scooters for our scooter pod and 4 new bikes for KS2 to borrow.
We regularly hold Bike Breakfasts and ask the local Safety Police Team to come along and security mark bikes. On 19th October 2022 31 children waited patiently to have their bikes marked whilst enjoying a bike breakfast.

In July we sent out an email to all parents to take part in a survey hosted by Sustrans.
"Dear parents,
As you know, our school has been working with Sustrans, the charity that makes it easier for people to walk and cycle, through its Bike It programme.
Sustrans are giving away two free bikes (one adult, one child) and all you have to do to be in with a chance of winning these is complete this survey.
All completed surveys will be entered in to the prize draw, and you have until 12th July to enter. The survey will take around 10 minutes to complete.
If you have any queries about active travel, the school run or any other questions for Sustrans, please contact Raphael at raphael.younger@sustrans.org.uk
Sustrans is the charity making it easier for people to walk and cycle. We connect people and places, create liveable neighbourhoods, transform the school run and deliver a happier, healthier commute. Join us on our journey. http://www.sustrans.org.uk/"
We are delighted that one of our families won a bike for parents and child! Here is a picture of Lilianna with her new bike.
