Godinton Primary School Travel Plan and Sustainable Travel Initiatives

A school travel plan is a document that sets out a number of practical ways to help reduce the amount of car trips made to a school, encourages more use of public transport, walking, cycling and scooting and to helps to improve safety on the school journey.

The travel plan aims to raise awareness among pupils and parents of the harmful effects of increasing car use on children's health, safety and independence. It highlights the implications of travel choice and the benefits of encouraging more sustainable travel to school.

Please find below our school travel plan which was approved by the Kent Travel Plan team in October 2024.

We hope that you will encourage your child to walk, cycle or scooter to school where possible and to join in with school initiatives which promote this such as our WOW campaign organised through the charity Living Streets. Children have the opportunity to collect monthly badges for walking, cycling or scootering to school each week.
