Free transport to school

3. Faith schools

If you get the maximum amount of Working Tax Credit or your children are entitled to free school meals, they could get free school transport if they:

  • Attend a school other than the nearest secondary school on the grounds of religion or belief if the school attended is the nearest of your religion and the distance is between 2 and 15 miles

We no longer provide discretionary denominational transport assistance to families who are not a low income family (for example, you get the maximum  amount of Working Tax Credit or your children are entitled to free school meals).

If you are applying for a school place you should consider the information about transport in the admissions literature before you apply.
