THE NEXT STOP A PARENT S GUIDE TO THE MAIN BUS ROUTES SERVING SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN PLYMOUTH SEPTEMBER 2014 This leaflet is designed to help parents when deciding which secondary school they would prefer their child to attend in September 2014. Most opt for the local school or community college, often within easy walking distance of home, but others choose one outside the immediate area and may, therefore, need information about the availability of bus services. All Plymouth secondary schools and community colleges are listed in this leaflet, together with the main bus routes that stop at, or very near to, each one and the local areas that each route serves. (The route number and operator are coded for example, PC 50 is a Plymouth Citybus route serving Tor Bridge High from the city centre via Prince Rock and Leigham). For further information about routes and times contact:- First Devon & Cornwall: Telephone 0845 600 1420 Plymouth Citybus: Telephone 0845 077 2223 Warning This leaflet lists bus routes as at September 2013, but these may be changed or even cancelled at any time. The leaflet cannot, therefore, be a firm guide as to the bus services available from September 2014 onwards, nor does it imply that pupils using these services would be entitled to free school transport. Free School Transport and Concessionary Fares The current position is that Plymouth pupils are not normally entitled to free transport to a mainstream secondary school because they all live within walking distance defined in law as 3 miles by the shortest available walking route of a designated comprehensive school. Free transport may be provided for exceptional reasons, for example, on medical grounds. Please note, that free travel is not provided to pupils attending a grammar school or a faith school. Free travel may be available for pupils who are eligible for free school meals or where the family is in receipt of the maximum level of Working Tax Credit. For further information please see page 13 of the Next Step Guide for Parents. Child fares are available to under 16 s at the driver s discretion. If you look over 14 you may be asked to prove your age. Plymouth Citybus provides a range of reduced price season tickets which are available on line, from Shops displaying the Paypoint Logo, or from their Travel Centre in Royal Parade. Reduced price season tickets are available to anyone under the age of 19 and also anyone under the age of 23 in full time education. Final Version September 2013 Not protectively marked
