The purpose of the School Travel Plan
A School Travel Plan (STP) sets out how our school will promote safer, active and sustainable travel to and from school, with the main emphasis being on reducing the number of children being driven to and from school.
All schools are expected to have an up to date STP and will be required as a planning requirement
This travel plan has been prepared to:-
Keep our children fit and healthy and safe on the way to and from school Support Devon County Council’s commitment in reducing our reliance on cars
Help the environment by reducing congestion, air and noise pollution Educate the school children and parents on the health benefits of walking and sustainable travel and
the various sustainable travel options
