Assisting travel between home and school

We provide information for parents and carers and on what types of travel assistance can be provided for pupils between home and school. In order to be considered for help you must be:

Ordinarily resident in the Birmingham area, ie: you, as the parent, must pay your council tax to Birmingham City Council

and

Your child must be attending the nearest available school.

Guidance for parents, carers and pupils

We will consider providing appropriate public travel assistance between home and school for those pupils between the ages of 5 and 16 years of age.

For those pupils with learning difficulties and / or physical difficulties we will also consider providing more specialised forms of transport assistance. For further details please read the Education Transport Policy and the guidance available from our Documents page.
