Transport to school

Some of our children who live within the catchment area for the school, are entitled to make use of  free transportation to school. Hampshire County Council's Home to School Transport Policy (see below) states:

Statutory walking distances

4.4. For pupils of compulsory school age, transport is provided if their nearest suitable or catchment school, measured from the child’s home to the nearest available entrance  to the school grounds’, is:                                            

  • Beyond two miles (if below the age of eight); or
  • Beyond three miles (if aged between eight and 16).

Statutory walking distance defined in Section 444(5) of the Education Act 1996
