Walking and cycling

Recommended routes to primary schools

We like to promote active travel (walking, cycling, or wheeling) to school whenever possible.

The maps in the link below show how long it takes to walk or cycle to each of our Primary Schools from different areas within their catchment.

• Recommended routes to school map for every primary school in Midlothian.

We do not encourage travel to school by car.

If you MUST come to school by car, please consider carefully where you park—pupils’ safety must take priority over convenience.

Suitable parking locations are shown on the map. Please avoid parking in the vicinity of school gates, especially on yellow zig-zags and green crossing strips.

If you need to park please park with consideration to our neighbours in surrounding streets—avoiding driveways and pupil crossing points.
