Successful Green Schools Year

What a difference a year makes!

From comparative surveys done in school we have found that we really are becoming a ‘greener’ school in relation to sustainable travel. We have decreased car usage from 85% to 39% and we’ve increased park ‘n’ striding to 44%. Carpooling has increased from 30% to 46%. Well done to everyone who has made an extra special effort to use ‘greener’ ways to travel to and from school.

There are more children wearing hi-vis vests (52%) and helmets (69%) when cycling, but we hope to see everyone wearing these next year when surveys are repeated! 

Thank you to all the pupils on the Green Schools committee who have put a lot of work into the travel programme this year. Their work is very much appreciated.
