TfL Travel for Life (formerly STARS) is an accreditation scheme that allows schools to access resources, support and funding.
School travel plans are used to find out how children are getting to and from school, and to record any issues around each school.
We use school travel plans to target road safety training and projects.
We provide resources to assist with all aspects of travel planning and offer 1:1 training.
An up-to-date travel plan is essential when schools:
- need building work
- are looking to expand
- request support with transport issues
How to take part
