Own the Ride
We have developed some unique adaptations for level 3 sessions which have proved very successful in engaging with the hard-to-reach age demographic in secondary schools.
Own the Ride courses are a flexible and creative approach to level 3 training with older children. Trainees contribute to the course content, participating in discussion groups about vulnerable road users, undertaking route planning activities, group rides to destinations of interest; a typical Own the Ride programme consists of:
* Introduction, Icebreaker and Boundaries
* Discussion and information about local cycling campaigns and infrastructure
* The National Standard
* Cycle Checks
* Level 2 Skills Consolidation
* Route Planning
* Level 3 Skills and Led Ride
* Course Conclusion and Action Plan
Own the Ride courses can be run over 1.5 to 3 days depending on the depth and breadth of the content and the ability of the group. The final half day is usually done at a later date to allow us to assess and evaluate the impact of the training and importantly any changes in travel to school behaviour.
Bikeability Plus modules and family training
Our Bikeability Plus courses aim to complement and support our core child training. We want to improve skills and confidence with a range of different options aimed at children of all ages and stages.
We offer the modules subject to client, location, demand and where practical. Timings and ratios for all the above courses will follow those directed by The Bikeability Trust delivery guides for the level and course provided.
