Bikeability Balance in Schools
For children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 (Age 4 - 6)
The Plymouth School Sports Partnership work with their consortium partners, Execel at Cycling Ltd and The Cycling Partnership, to deliver Bikeability in Plymouth and Devon (excluding Torbay).
Bikeability Balance is a fun activity that helps children learn how to cycle.
Bikeability research has found that 40% of 6 year olds are unable to ride a bike. Part of the reason for this is that children often get stuck using a bike with stabilisers or a tricycle, and are unable to progress easily to using a bike without stabilisers.
Children learn in groups of up to 5 per instructor.
By using balance bikes with no pedals, our sessions focus on developing balance, rather than the ability to pedal. Achieving this helps children make the transition to using a bike with pedals.
Other benefits of Bikeability Balance include learning gross motor skills which can accelerate other types of learning and improving early years fitness.
