Travelling to School

What is a School Travel Plan?

The School Travel Plan (STP) initiative was introduced in 2009 to encourage all schools to promote sustainable travel, in order to reduce congestion and pollution and increase healthier modes of travelling to school. The STP gives info on how people get to and from the school, identifies problems with safe and sustainable travel and sets objectives to resolve these issues.

Why Have a School Travel Plan?

Although not a mandatory policy, the Academy Council of Oasis Academy Ryelands has agreed that a regular review of the STP is the most effective way of identifying issues with any aspect of school travel and provides information to all stakeholders in a single, publicly available document.

School Travel Plan 2023/24

The main objectives on the 2023/24 STP are:

  • Form a school travel working group
  • Create a walking map zone for the school
  • Take part in Walk To School Month which will include Walk To School Week
  • To take part in various competitions and events to raise the profile throughout the year
