• What is Walking Or Wheeling all about?

  WOW is an incentive scheme to encourage pupils to travel to school in a sustainable and safe way.

• How does it operate?

  Class teachers log on and ask children to record their daily journeys using the WOW diary.

• How do pupils earn badges?

  Pupils need to record an average of 3 A*STARS journeys per week over a set period of time.

• What do we mean by A*STARS journeys?

  Any journey that uses a sustainable mode of travel (excluding car or van) and includes best road safety practices is classed as an A*STARS journey.

• What is 100+ Achievers?

  Schools that take part in WOW for a whole academic year have the opportunity to enter their children into an annual prize draw at the end of the year. To be entered, children must accumulate 100 or more A*STARS journeys.
