Secondary School Cycling Guide

We are producing a Secondary School cycling Guide for year 7/8 pupils and their parents.

It will include practical information, advice and guidance about cycling and aims to address safety concerns and help students to feel confident and safe when cycling to their secondary school.

The cycling guide will also include a bespoke cycling map, which shows the skill level for each road based on Bikeability Levels of cycle training, to help students to plan their route to school.

To register your school's interest in this publication or to find out more please email sta@hackney.gov.uk
