Y5 Bikeability

Bikeability is the government’s national cycle training programme.  This training equips children with vital life skills. Pupils not only learn to cycle, they gain independence, social skills and a sense of wellbeing. After Bikeability, children are better at responding to risk and report increased confidence. As a result, more children cycle to school which in turn improves mental health and wellbeing. This allows children to get more out of the classroom, improving their attention span and engagement. Healthier habits lead to increased attendance and improved academic results.

The children spent a morning in the school playground and then ventured out onto the roads of Tockwith!  The children were extremely well behaved and had a great time learning and improving their cycling skills!
