At the Siggiewi Primary School on Malta, children from kindergarten and primary school kicked-off the app-pilot October 2023. But already from the beginning of 2023 the school was involved, since they (teachers, students and caregivers) gave insight into their needs, wishes and concerns regarding the app functionalities, but also on children's participation in traffic, safe schoolzones and the current walking infrastruct!ure. In co-creation we then established the functionalities of the app! The local police, Transport Malta and Project Eagle Foundation (PAF) also made a substantial effort in making it a community driven app by and for the society.

It became clear that there is a high need for an app that would reduce the cars not only at schoolzones, but also on the roads towards the schools, since it makes it a real challenge for the children and caregivers to get around safely. Having a walking buddy assured that the children are guided (however as you can see from the picture > the children were also carefully looking after each other!)

The Maltese use case

At Siggiewi Primary School in Malta, nursery and primary school children took part in a pilot programme, kicking off in 2023.

The entire school (teachers, pupils and parents/carers) was involved. Through a co-creation process, the needs, wishes and concerns were taken into account and translated into the final functionalities of the programme.

The local police, Transport Malta and Project Eagle Foundation (PAF) worked closely together to design the programme and app to meet all needs.

Since then, the children have kept up the tradition of walking to school together every day, taking two different routes!

Children helping each other to get to school

The effect

The pilot demonstrated the urgent need for a solution that not only reduces car traffic around school zones, but also prioritizes safe routes to school.

The walking buddies provided safe guidance and encouraged older children to look out for younger ones. After three months of testing, measurements showed that half of the children had quickly become much more aware of their behaviour in traffic and of road safety. The programme also had strong social effects. More parents started walking with their children, and they even built a bag trolley together!

The effect

The sCOOL2walk pilot in Riga showed that enjoyment of walking was a strong motivating factor, and that walking together increased this enjoyment. sCOOL2walk also had a strong impact on communal relationships and feelings of security.

Due to the presence of extreme cold weather conditions, guided walks were deemed an essential safety measure, being considered much safer than cycling during heavy frost.

Combining public transport with walking was the ideal way to tackle the cold and longer distances!

After this pilot in combination with the ones in Barcelona en Malta, we proceeded to improve the sCOOL2walk app and programme. Interested to know more? Get in touch.

Conclusions based on a survey amongst the users of the sCOOL2walk pilot in Barcelona 75% said that the usage of the pilot gave them more enjoyment in walking and made them more aware of the safety. 83% mentioned a stronger communal relationship and stronger sense of feeling secure. With 60% of the people having a strong intention to continue with the sCOOL2walk platform and a reduction of 17% in the car usage.

Dutch implementation!

We will be piloting at multiple schools in the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands.

sCOOL2walk is offered as in-class lessons to introduce the programme. These are provided in collaboration with SportUtrecht. You can find us in the list of traffic safety programmes on the Municipality's website.

Come back soon to see our latest developments!

The cycling variant

In Veere, we recently started our co-creation development process for sCOOL2bike!

On assignment from the Province of Zeeland (Living Lab Smart Mobility), we are working with the 5th-8th grade classes at De Magdalon primary school in Veere, Zeeland!

The functionalities of the sCOOL2bike app are shaped in close collaboration, based on the needs, wishes and concerns of our end-users: the parents and children!

The development

This version is still under development; we are working with the students and parents/guardians to map out the cycle routes (pedalroutes). The app will then be customised so that the children can cycle safely to school every day in Veere!
