DfES School Travel Plan Grant

Schools with an approved travel plan are eligible for a grant from the Department of Education and Skills of around £5,000 for primary schools, and £10,000 for secondary schools. The funding is aimed at paying for improvements on the school site to encourage greener travel - for example cycle storage or footpaths.

  • Details on what schools can spend the money on

Make sure your school has claimed their grant money! You do not automatically receive the grant, you must draw it down. Find out how to do this here.
