Independent Travel Training

What is Independent Travel Training?

Devon County Council has set up a free scheme to provide travel training for young people who may need help to learn how to travel on their own safely.

If a child currently travels to school or college on assisted transport and would like to travel on their own, independent travel training can help.

Working closely with the child's school or college we can help identify and practice the skills they need to be able to travel alone safely.

This could include road safety, money skills, telling the time and what to do in an emergency.

Current Transport Arrangements

PLEASE NOTE: If a child takes part in the scheme it does not mean that we will take away any current transport to school or college.

 

Walking and Cycling

As well as learning how to travel safely on the bus, we can also help those who may want to walk or cycle to school or college.

Cycle training can be provided to anyone who would like to learn how to cycle safely.
