Cycling
Safety
| To encourage children to cycle to school the school should provide a bike shed. It should have as many bike stands as needed for the children, and shelves for the helmets. |
 |
| Every school should have a cycling proficiency for the children. It tells them how to use their bike's properly on the road and the signals. When they know how to use their bike's on the road it will encourage them to cycle to school and use their bike's more often. |  |
| There are lots of advantages of using your bikes, for example it cuts down on pollution and petrol. It also is a great fat burner and the parents don't have to leave the house in the morning! |
 |
| Most schools do cycling proficiency.
This is when instructors teach the children how to ride their bike safely as more and more people start cycling on the roads. But then the hard thing is getting tested. Of course you'll get tested when you are ready. |

|
| When you receive your certificate you will then be able to ride safely on the road will your helmet of course!!!!!!!! |
