Why should schools sign up?
Slough Borough Council's vision for schools and young people is to promote active, safer and responsible travel that will remain with young people through adult life.
Provide access to the right information and services to help them make appropriate choices and travel confidently.
Encourage school staff and pupils to commit to making your local environment cleaner and safer by reducing car use in your neighbourhood.
See more on the support available.
We can work with schools to tackle congestion on the school run. Developing a school travel plan (STP) will help identify the issues that prevent the take up of sustainable modes (cycling and walking).
A travel plan lists actions that a school agrees and commits to run as part of the whole school. This is an opportunity to bring the school community together on common issues.
See more on the 'how to prepare a school travel plan' page.
Not only are we able to offer incentives to change travel behaviour, we can also provide rewards for those already walking or cycling.
If you would like to develop a school travel plan, Slough Borough Council's Better By team can help with all the information, resources and support you need.
