Sustainable School Travel
Developing Your School Travel Plan
Moving On
Now you have completed your Travel plan you will want to implement it so that your school makes a real shift towards sustainable travel to school. Developing the plan so that it is embedded in the life and ethos of the school ensures that the whole school community is involved and can contribute to the long term success of the plan. Every child, parent and staff member can play their part in creating a healthier sustainable future for themselves and their children.
To help you achieve this we have produced the "Moving On" folder which is available in both printed and electronic forms.
For a printed copy phone 0845 1551004 and ask for the Road Safety Helpdesk or email rshelp@devon.gov.uk.
