MORE pupils will be biking to Harry Cheshire High School after a successful bid for cycle stands.

Worcestershire County Council and the Safer Routes to School initiative have provided the stands, which can cater for up to 60 bicycles.

CCTV has also been installed to reduce the risk of anti-social behaviour and bikes being stolen.

Headteacher Michael Hird said: "We want to persuade as many pupils as possible to cycle to school.

"The provision of these cycle stands and CCTV mean pupils can park up their bikes in the knowledge they will be safe."
