The class view for parents

What the link from your child's school shows you, and what it deliberately does not.

Your child's school may send you a link to a class view. It shows how the class as a whole travelled to school. Open it on a phone or a computer — there is nothing to install and no account to create.

What you see

Today's active travel — the share of the class who travelled to school without being driven.
Today's travel mix — how the class travelled, broken down by walking and wheeling, cycling, scooting, Park & Stride, bus, train, car-share and car.
A 10-day trend — how the class has been travelling over the last ten school days.

What you do not see

You do not see your own child, and you do not see anyone else's.

The page states this plainly: "This page shows aggregated class data only. No individual pupil information is displayed."

There is no way to see how any individual pupil travelled. The figures are counts for the whole class.

What the school stores about your child

No personal data. In the classroom, your child taps a tile carrying a nickname the system generates from a colour and an animal — something like Teal Otter. No name, no address, no device is recorded. What is stored is that one tile in one class travelled a particular way on a particular morning.

Your council is the data controller for the programme and publishes its own privacy notice. The address is usually printed on the permission slip or letter you were given; if you cannot find it, your school will give it to you.

The link is for the parents and guardians of one class. Please do not post it on social media, a WhatsApp group beyond the class, or anywhere public.

A school can regenerate the link at any time, which stops the old one working — so if the link stops opening, ask the school for the current one.

Questions

Is my child being tracked? No. Nothing follows your child or records where they are. Once each morning, a tile in a classroom is tapped to say how that pupil got to school.

Can I opt my child out? Yes — speak to the school. Your council's privacy notice explains your rights and who to contact.

Why does the car still count? Because the point is an accurate picture of how children actually get to school. Car journeys are part of that picture — they are what lets a council make the case for a crossing, a footpath or a bike shelter.

Who do I ask about this? The school first. They can answer most questions and will pass on anything for the council.
