The Department’s THINK! Education resource centre provides education resources, which are organised into lesson packs by age and stages of education.

The Government also has a number of public facing web pages and social media sites such as "Tales of the Road", which features: road safety games, quizzes, tips and advice for 6-11 year olds and their parents; and "I can’t wait to pass my driving test", which has lots of useful information for learning to drive.

The Government recognises that there is value in training cyclists to ride safely and confidently on the road. That is why we took the decision to safeguard the future of Bikeability during this Parliament.
