Children usually walk to school without their parents in the early years. In this way, they learn to find their way through traffic alone on a familiar route. This experience is very important for the children.
The school route map can help them choose the right route. It warns of danger spots, e.g. dangerous crossing points, and offers parents and children possible solutions for the safest route to school.
The first point of contact for questions on this topic can be the school or the local police.
The necessary transport for pupils on their way to school is organized and provided by the school transport authorities. They are also responsible for reimbursing the costs.
The school transport services are set up by the local authorities and the authorities responsible for school transport. Pupils can register as school crossing guards and school bus crossing guards, and adults can volunteer as school crossing assistants and school bus attendants.
A safe journey to school must be the goal of all those responsible. Children must be able to make their way to school safely as pedestrians, cyclists, passengers in cars or users of public transport. Any questions in this regard can be clarified with experts on site.
