Children and Families Urban Cycle Skills
This course is aimed at children and parents or guardians, teaching children to cycle safely on roads, and teaching you to lead your child safely through traffic. We require your permission for older children to take part without an accompanying adult.
To take this course, your child needs good bike control skills such as signalling, stopping in an emergency and looking behind while cycling in a straight line. All participants must have their own, roadworthy bikes.
The training will begin away from traffic, moving onto quiet roads and busier situations as appropriate. This could include your route to school. Sessions last between 90 minutes and 2 hours.

Bikeability at Schools
This training is also offered under the name of ‘Bikeablity’ to many children at Camden schools.
Children in year 5 or 6 can learn road safety skills on quiet roads. Younger pupils are taught bike control skills within the school grounds. Pupils in early year groups can take part in scooter training and pedestrian skills sessions.
Contact your school directly to find out whether this will be available to your child. Schools in Camden looking for further information on Bikeability should email Richard Riddle, Road Safety Officer.
