Date: 4th Nov 2025 @ 1:13pm
The Year 5 children recently took part in their Level 2 & 3 Bikeability course.
Bikeability Level 2 taught them to:
Start and stop with more confidence
Pass stationary vehicles parked on a road
Understand the road: signals, signs and road markings
Negotiate the road: including quiet junctions, crossroads and roundabouts
Share the road with other vehicles
Bikability Level 3 taught them to:
Use the best riding position for any situation.
Ride alongside other cyclists.
Ride on more complex roads. This might include busier roads, more complicated junctions or faster roads with speed limits above 30mph.
Negotiate more complex roads. For example, junctions controlled by traffic lights, multi-lane roads or cycle lanes.
Respond confidently when a situation changes. For example, when a vehicle pulls out in front of you.
