If you live within the school catchments area but more than 3 miles from School your child is "eligible" for free transport to and from School. Application forms are normally provided by primary schools as part of the "leavers pack". The authority will provide scholar's tickets and service details to "eligible" pupils during the summer break.
Pupils who live within 3 miles of School or outside of its catchments area are "ineligible" for free transport but many apply to take up any "unused" seats which may be available - there will be a charge in such cases. Application forms for both "eligible" and "ineligible" places can be obtained by Telephoning County Transport Co-ordination - 01244 606044
In addition the following services accept fare paying passengers and terminate on the School Bus Park.
