How to become a Bikeability instructor

The Scottish Parliament has stated that “Every school child should have the opportunity to benefit from cycle training.”

Bikeability Scotland offers a comprehensive training programme for children that covers everything from pre-ride safety checks and road signals to hazard awareness and road positioning.

For children, the benefits of Bikeability Scotland can include:

  • Improving their hazard awareness
  • Improving the confidence of both pupils and their parents, to cycle more after training
  • Promoting active lifestyles, with children more likely to cycle after training.
