REVISED ATTACHMENT - Young Cyclists Behaviour Survey - Years 7, 8 & 9
The LBH School Travel and Road Safety (STARS) Cycling Support Team are working in partnership with Dr Dan Bishop, a Senior Lecturer in Sport, Health and Exercise Sciences at Brunel University London.
The Brunel team are now running a project funded by The Bikeability Trust and Department for Transport, to improve our understanding of the barriers and enablers for Years 7-9 pupils and their parents regarding cycling on roads. The first part of the project is an online survey designed for the pupil and their parent/carer to complete together; those who do so will receive a £10 Amazon gift card, on a first come, first served, basis.
They can also choose to be entered into a draw for 3 additional studies:
•A joint pupil-and-parent/carer online interview (£25 Amazon gift card for each pupil interviewee)
•A cycle monitoring study in which the pupil would be eligible to purchase an award-winning See.Sense ACE rear light for only £10 (RRP £44.99)
•A Virtual Reality Cycling Competition (£250 worth of Amazon gift card prizes for the Top 3 performers)
