This webinar introduces the Travel to School Guideline, developed to support the planning and delivery
of safe, active travel for students.
The guideline promotes integrated, evidence-based approaches that prioritise children’s mobility, health,
and safety within transport and land-use planning.
It provides a practical framework for planning both new and existing schools, drawing on best-practice principles, policy guidance, and implementation tools suitable for a range of school environments.
During the webinar, we explore key elements of the guideline, including:
* Integrated planning – coordinating land use, school siting, and transport infrastructure to reduce reliance on car travel.
* Collaboration – working across government, schools, and communities to achieve successful outcomes.
* Integrated solutions – combining infrastructure improvements with travel behaviour change initiatives.
* Community-informed planning– a model to ensure local knowledge shapes context-appropriate solutions.
* Case studies, tools, and resources to support implementation and evaluation.
The guideline is supported by two research reports covering the principles and best-practice evidence behind the guidance
