Get Your School Involved

At Scottish Cycling, we’re passionate about getting more young people on bikes. Whether it’s for fun, fitness, sport, or simply as a way to get around, cycling has the power to change lives.

That’s why we’ve created the Scottish Cycling Schools Club Network — and we’d love your school to be part of it.

The network is open to all primary and secondary school clubs across Scotland. These clubs can take many forms, including lunch time or after school sessions. Whether you already run cycling activities or are just getting started, joining is a great way to build confidence, get support, and help your pupils enjoy all the benefits that cycling has to offer.

Join the Scottish Cycling Schools Club Network

By joining the network, your school will get access to a range of benefits: 

  • Discounted Mini Riders Licences: Mini Riders is a fun, structured cycling programme, helping children and young people to build skills and confidence beyond just learning to ride. Schools get access to ready-made lesson plans, coaching guides, and support materials, making it easy to deliver. 
  • Access to Funding: Member schools can apply for funding pots to help grow cycling in your school – this could support training staff or young people (age 14+) as coaches, or fund specific programmes such as increasing the number of girls taking part.  
  • Monthly Newsletter: Stay up to date with our newsletter – it includes useful resources, ideas and funding opportunities.  
  • Support from Scottish Cycling: We’re here to help. As part of the network, you’ll have access to the Scottish Cycling club development team for advice and support — whether you’re looking to run a cycling session, connect with a local club, or plan your first school cycling event.

Please note: Being part of the Scottish Cycling Schools Club Network does not include insurance cover for your school or pupils. If you’re looking for insurance and a more formal structure to support your cycling activity, our club affiliation package may be a better fit.
