Bikeability

Children get the opportunity to take part in Bikeability in Y5 and Y6. The training is in two parts:

 

Level One takes place on the playground at school showing basic control and bike handling skills. Children are required to show that they can start and stop efficiently, look over their shoulders to check for other users, ride with one hand of the handlebars and show signalling, show control at slow speeds culminating in a figure of 8 and a 'Slow Race'.

 

Level Two has riders on the local roads around the school site. They are required to complete starting and stopping safely, make u-turns, pass a parked car and a side road, and make left and right turns into various side roads and main roads.
