Junior Travel Ambassadors (JTAs)
What are JTAs?
“TfL's Junior Travel Ambassador (JTA) scheme encourages safer, active and independent travel within the school community, with a focus on year 6 pupils as they prepare for the transition to secondary school.
The scheme involves recruiting a team of JTAs; year 4 and 5 pupils who work to promote active travel and road safety to their peers through a range of activities.”
Our Vision
For all pupils, parents and staff to travel actively to school by walking, cycling and scooting wherever possible.
Why is active travel important?
- Happier children
- Less congestion
- Cleaner air
Top tips from the JTAs
*Always use the Green Cross Code STOP, LOOK, LISTEN, THINK
*Give yourself enough time to travel to school.
*Turn your engine off if you wait in the car.

KBJ in Year 6 - Let's Travel Actively!
Transport is part of pollution,
But I have a solution!
You could scooter or walk,
Bike with your friend and have a talk!
Walking will be as calming as a resort,
But if you need to use transport,
Get off early and scooter to school.
Stop wasting all that fuel!
Think of the joys of going outside in the sun,
Refresh your mind, have some fun.
Walk to school, short or far,
Don’t get cramped in a tiny car!
Vehicles are fast, but not the best,
So, lets put this to the test:
We should go transport-free,
There are so any benefits for you and me.
Birds chirp here and there,
There are beautiful noises everywhere.
Biking around in the morning,
Riding in a vehicle is much more boring.
So join me, take part in active travel,
(It really helps you unravel).
Stop the vehicles, stop pollution
Lets start a transport-free revolution.
