Post-16 Transport Policy Statement 2022/23

Last updated: 16 May 2022

8. Further information

8.1 Council arranged transport for students from the same household

For families with more than one student in the household with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, for example siblings, who have transport organised by the Council, full payment is required for each student. This is the case regardless of whether they are travelling in the same vehicle or not.

8.2 Non-payment of charges

Payments are required for transport organised by the Council (except for the circumstances outlined in section 6.5). Payments need to be made within 28 days of the Council confirming the transport fees that apply. Any non- payment will result in the withdrawal of transport. Parents/carers will be notified in writing of the date that transport will end. Transport will not be reinstated until any outstanding charges are paid.

Transport will not be withdrawn while a review due to severe financial hardship is underway.
