School travel & transport |
|
If your children are attending their nearest allocated
school and that school is beyond statutory walking distance (two miles for
pupils under the age of eight, or three miles for pupils of eight and over)
your Local Education Authority may provide free transport to and from school.
 The
policy on free transport is under review and should be checked for any
particular school.
If your children do not attend their nearest suitable school
the LEA is unlikely to provide assistance with your transport costs unless
there are exceptional circumstances.
Private Schools
Few private infant schools offer bus services as the
children are deemed too young for this.
Some secondary schools offer a private bus service.
