🚴 Cycling Proficiency 2025 🚴♂️
2nd May 2025
Congratulations to our Primary 6/7 pupils who completed The Cycling Proficiency Scheme today after a very intense week of lessons, theory tests and cycling assessments. Road safety is an essential part of our teaching in a rural community and vital to our Personal Development and Mutual Understanding PDMU.
The Cycling Proficiency Scheme teaches children who can already ride a bicycle, how to do so more safely. It covers what to wear, bicycle maintenance and the rules of the road.
It also allows children to practise cycling manoeuvres in a safe environment. Manoeuvres include:
- starting off
- slowing down
- stopping and parking
- turning right and left
- overtaking parked cars
- passing side roads
- carrying out emergency stops safely
We wish to thank Mrs Lavery for her commitment to her pupils and meticulous delivery of the Cycling Proficiency Scheme.
