Child Pedestrian Training
Following the success of the national 'Kerbcraft' scheme, Croydon has introduced a similar child pedestrian training (CPT) scheme for year 1 pupils.
Working in partnership with Kerbcraft, the new CPT comprises six on-street training sessions offering intensive instruction in basic road safety skills. The courses are run by the council's professional trainers, with a maximum of three pupils per trainer. Training includes:
- teaching the right approach when stopping at the kerb
- how to cross a road when there are parked vehicles
- identifying the correct procedures at junctions.
The scheme is targeted at wards with higher than average child pedestrian injury collision records.
