Help with school and college transport
Overview
There are 4 types of help available for school and college transport:
- Personal Transport Budget
- Independent travel training
- Taxi or mini bus travel
- Bus pass for public transport
To promote and develop independence, taxi travel is only considered in cases where all alternative options are thought to be unsuitable.
