TRANSPORT

School transport is provided by North Yorkshire Council (NYC) who will assess automatically if your child is eligible.

North Yorkshire Council (NYC) provides free school transport to the catchment school or nearest school to your home if it is over the walking distances set out by law (3 miles for students in Year 7 to Year 11).

You do not need to apply for free home to school transport if your child is starting a school and you have applied for a place at a NYC school. NYC will automatically assess your child’s eligibility and will send you a pass if you are eligible.

Please visit https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/school-transport-reception-year-11-children or for sixth form students visit https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/transport-sixth-form-or-college  for more information.

If your child’s pass has not yet arrived, you can still use the transport. As with every other year operators will carry children without a pass for the first two weeks of term.
