TfL funding
About this activity
Suitable for all nursery, primary and secondary schools.
NB: We’re bringing together all the TfL education programmes, including STARS, under one exciting new umbrella programme called TfL Travel for Life. They will be the same great programmes, but with a new name and a new look, easier online process and dedicated support team. STARS for primary schools will be renamed TfL Explorers. STARS for secondary schools will be renamed TfL Pioneers.
TfL funding gives you the opportunity to set up projects that encourage the whole school community to engage with active travel.
Funding can be used to fund all kinds of active travel projects, for example:
- Purchasing bikes and scooters to loan to children who cannot afford them
- Setting up a breakfast club that rewards those who cycle or scoot to school
Your school must already have a bronze, silver or gold TfL Travel for Life Accreditation to apply for TfL funding.
Speak with your borough officer about the funding available and for support with the application process.
Work with your school travel working group to come up with project ideas and to complete the funding application.
How to evidence your activity
- Involve your borough officer: Share your ideas for funding, agree your targets and discuss any challenges you face
- Sign in to TfL Travel for Life to add your story. Explain how and where the funding has been used and how it has benefited your school. Include your pupils’ feedback, photographs of the funded project and any related documents. Also include any posters, letters and promotional materials
