The Big Pedal 2019
Just a reminder that on Monday 25th The Big Pedal week will begin!
Sustrans Big Pedal is the UK’s largest inter-school cycling, walking and scooting challenge inspiring pupils, staff and parents to choose human power for their journey to school.
For the first time, walking will be counted alongside cycling and scooting.
Sustrans Big Pedal will run for 10 days from 25 March to 5 April 2019 and is open to all primary and secondary schools in the UK, including SEN schools.
What is the challenge?
On each day, schools compete to see who can get as many of their pupils, staff and parents cycling, walking or scooting to school. Your school’s best five days will determine your final position, but you can log journeys on all ten days if you wish.
For schools unable to take part in the main event we have a one-day challenge, which can include cycling, walking and scooting activities in the school day as well as on the journey to school.
School Resources
We provide a suite of fun and interactive resources to help make your challenge a success. These free resources include:
- A school account on the Big Pedal website
- A wallchart on the Human Body with curriculum-based fact cards, register by 10 March to receive a free paper copy in the post
- Daily classroom activities
- Posters
- Top Tips
- Leaderboards
Daily prize draws
Schools will be entered into a daily prize draw for rewards including equipment and accessories if over 15% of your school community cycle, walk or scoot on that day of the challenge.
