Balanceability | Scooter Wise
  • Scooter Wise

    Our Scooter Wise programme provides you with a sustainable activity to teach primary school children from Year 1 to Year 4, how to ride a scooter safely so that they can enjoy the freedom and fun that riding a scooter provides.

    It can help with basic balance and sensory integration in a child’s early years. Without this, learning and reading development can be significantly delayed.

    You are able to get set up with Scooter Wise by purchasing a Pack which includes all the equipment and resources required to deliver the sessions as a sustainable programme within your setting. 

    Balance and Direction

    Scooters can help improve coordination with use at any age, particularly when children are young and learning how to balance using their weight. Our Scooter Wise programme develops any child’s ability to scoot safely through a range of games and fun activities.

    Attending a Balanceability demonstration at Welton Primary School, I was impressed with the potential opportunities it offered for younger children who would normally have to wait until year six to receive any formal cycle training. Not only does the scheme offer a logical step on the way to Bike-ability training, but it appears to equally support the requirements of the PE curriculum at Key Stage 1.

    Balanceability also has the potential to fill a gap in current cycling and cycle training provision and dovetail into NGB schemes like British Cycling's Go Ride scheme. As an indoor activity it should offer leisure and community centres a great all-year-round fun activity and along with our local Avon and Somer Valley community schemes - plus the Sky Ride Bath - it is well placed to promote cycling to a wider age range.
