Country roads

Description

A recent study has shown that although fewer accidents occur on rural roads, their severity is far greater. In the countryside, a car journey may be the only option for the school run. So how do primary schools ensure that their students develop good pedestrian skills? We visit Barley First School to look at the initiatives they ve put in place, such as Bikeability, Risk Assessment, and Guided Walks. The school hopes to encourage their pupils physical health and road sense.
