Introduction

Welcome to the School Travel Workshop pages – the one stop shop for all your travel training needs! 

These pages are designed for use by educators/officers who do travel training with young people and would like to take part in the Smarter Travel Challenge.

The Smarter Travel Challenge is a challenge for young people to plan their own journey to secondary school using online journey planning websites, such as Kent Connected.

It is ideal to do this with Year 6 pupils who will be leaving primary school to go to secondary school to help them gain confidence planning journeys and valuable IT skills.

On these pages, there is a lesson plan for the challenge.  The lesson will take about 45 mins with a class of around 30 young people and you will need access to computers with at least one computer per 2 pupils.  Ive added a case study for inspiration and some useful surveys, so that you can find out how your young people are travelling to your school.

Hop on Board  and Happy Travelling from the Kent Community Rail Partnership!
