Chase Lane Primary

Chase Lane have been engaged since 2020 and skipped straight passed bronze to silver accreditation!

In 2023 they were awarded Gold after three years of activities to support active travel.  

They achieved ambitious targets to increase active travel to 75% by 2023 and reduce car use to 20%. These targets were appropriate for Chase Lane and their issues and achieving them has significantly improved the school and community.

• Written an active travel policy and launched it to parents 
• Incorporated environmental change into the geography curriculum
