Obviously a very good statistic. If you exclude the nursery pupils it adds up to 23.61 pupils but not to be sniffed at. Is also in Kilwinning.

"If you exclude the nursery pupils"
Don't know the school or the age group breakdowns, but I suspect that if a lot of work has gone in to encourage cycling it will include the nursery.
Even very young children can cycle reasonable distances - on pavements with parent/minder.

it is 28 in total if you include the nursery

The school I work in, 1400 pupils, now has one cyclist and it's me. The other one retired in June.
The school my kids go to, around 280 pupils, has one cyclist and two cycle trailerists. They might have something to do with me too.
