Bikeability is the current cycling proficiency scheme that enables children to complete Levels 1 and 2 (where applicable) to be safer cyclists on the roads.
The Bikeability programme is designed to give the next generation the skills and confidence to cycle on quiet roads independently.
Our cycle team of qualified instructors will deliver a combined Level 1 and 2 course to pupils who will be starting year 6 or above in September 2026.
