Bringing bicycles to school

We work very closely with Coventry Council and their cycling awareness team. All children in Year 6 have started cycling training in school time. All Year 6 who pass the awareness course will be able to cycle to school on their own (with parental permission). Any child in Years 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 coming to school on a bicycle must be escorted. In order to comply with advice given by the Council’s cycling awareness team all children should wear a suitable helmet for protection to and from school. We are in the process of having a bicycle storage area being made. It will not have sufficient space for every bicycle, so priority will be given to Year 6 children if too many bicycles appear on any given day.
