Free cycle training is happening across Scotland

Now Scotland has moved out of the levels system, Bikeability Scotland cycle training is returning to many schools across the country.

As the national cycle training programme for school children, Bikeability Scotland is designed to give children the skills and confidence they need to cycle safely on the roads, and to encourage them to carry on cycling into adulthood.

Just like learning to swim, learning to cycle safely is an essential life skill. As schools return, it is very important that children continue to have access to cycle training. Scottish Government guidance encourages walking and cycling to school at this time, and Bikeability Scotland supports outdoor learning.

Bikeability Scotland supports the next generation of confident and responsible road users. Transport is the single biggest source of climate change emissions and cycling helps reduce the impact on climate change and improves air quality.

Please use our School Checker tool to see if your school is participating. If not, all you need to do is get in touch with your local Bikeability Scotland coordinator. All participating local authorities have one and you will find their details by clicking on the link below.
