The annual Kids Walk campaign is being run by road safety charity Brake and will take place on June 22.
A range of free lesson and assembly plans, activities and Shaun the Sheep road safety posters are on offer to schools taking part.
On the day itself, thousands of school children across the UK are expected to take part in a short, supervised walk to promote important road safety messages.
Children will walk in pairs in crocodile formation within their community, to emphasise the importance of being able to walk without fear or threat from traffic or pollution.
Brake says that, on average, six children are killed or seriously injured on roads in Britain every day – that’s equivalent to a whole classroom of children every week.
