DS – Shuttle – The School also operates a Green Travel Plan, operating a free transfer system between the Junior/Nursery School and Senior School.

All stops have been banded into Zones, and the prices listed below are for either a full return, or for those that choose not to purchase a full return, the single journey cost for each zone. (non-contracted use is charged as ad-hoc travel)

The full return option represents the best value financially for any passenger making more than 6 individual journeys per week.

COVID-19 – Due to the ongoing pandemic, the school buses will be operated under the same guidelines as public transport. Passengers will need to wear a face-covering at all times on the bus. Sanitiser will be provided for a passenger when boarding and alighting. The seating and cabin of the bus will also be sanitised regularly in between journeys. Some of our buses will also have protective perspex screens installed for the added protection of our drivers and passengers.
