GuidanceA Safer Journey to School
Thumbnail of A Safer Journey to School
This product is created by DCSF

This book reviews the health and safety problems posed by the ‘school run’. It recommends setting up a school travel plan and sets out the steps entailed: getting people involved, mapping the school journey, drawing up the plan and obtaining publicity.

The book also highlights the educational benefits of involving children in the decision-making, then looks at redesigning road layout and various options for coming to school – walking, cycling, public transport and car-sharing. The important topics of safety and funding round the discussion off.
