Our Transport

The council provides free school transport to all children who live more than two miles walking distance from their zoned primary school and three miles walking distance from their zoned secondary school. They can also receive free school transport if their walk route is deemed unsafe for a child accompanied by a responsible adult.

If there are any additional spare seats, any pupils who are not entitled to transport can apply on a privilege basis (for example out of zone pupils). When applying at the start of a new school year any out of zone applications are not processed until after the term starts, usually around mid-September, to make sure all entitled pupils are accommodated first.

A privilege space on transport does not guarantee a permanent seat and transport can be removed at any time throughout a school year.  If you wish to be considered for a privilege space please contact the school office.
