Add the highway code to the national curriculum

Closed 46 signatures

What the petition asks

We think the basic principles of the highway code should be taught in key stage 2 and should be revisited in key stage 3 and 4.
It is something that is necessary for everyone to know about, including pedestrians and cyclists - not just drivers. This is especially important as many children cycle to school on a daily basis.
