Cornwall Council Launches Survey to Improve School Travel: Win Prizes for Your School!

Cornwall Council is reaching out to parents and guardians to better understand how children travel to and from school.

The council has launched a comprehensive school travel survey aimed at gathering essential data to help plan future improvements in local transportation.

Survey Details

The survey, accessible via this link, asks parents to provide the first part of their postcode. This approach allows the council to identify the general areas from which children are travelling without compromising specific addresses. This information is crucial for understanding local transportation needs and ensuring that travel options are safe and convenient for all students.

Why Participate?

By completing the survey, parents and guardians contribute valuable insights that will inform the council’s efforts to enhance school travel. Understanding travel patterns helps in planning routes, improving safety measures, and ensuring that the available options meet the needs of the community.

Prizes for Participation

To encourage participation, Cornwall Council is offering transport-related prizes to the three schools that have the highest proportion of completed surveys. Winning schools can choose from a range of prizes, adding an exciting incentive for parents to take part and support their local schools.

How to Get Involved

Parents and guardians can participate in the survey by visiting the provided link and answering a few simple questions about their child’s school travel. The council emphasises that this small effort can lead to significant improvements in how children travel to school.

Take a few minutes to complete the survey and contribute to making school travel in Cornwall safer and more convenient.
