1. Source : National Travel Survey. The figures are for pupils aged 5 to 16, as this is the normal basis for such NTS figures.
The purpose of this table is just to give a broad indication of the longer-term trends in travel to/from school.
The small sample sizes mean that sampling variability could have a noticeable effect on the figures for each period.
2. Data from 1995/97 onwards are based on weighted data and are not directly comparable with earlier data which were based on unweighted data
3. The number of short walks is believed to have been under-recorded in 2002/03
Note - this table excludes trips of 50 miles or over to correspond with NTS published results.
