School Transport
Flintshire County Council provides free transport for children of compulsory school age where a child receiving primary education lives over two miles from the nearest appropriate school.
Flintshire County Council also provides free transport for pupils of statutory school age:
- where the route to school is considered to be hazardous by the LA in consultation with the Environment Directorate
- where transport to a named school is identified in a pupil’s Statement of Special Educational Needs. This would normally be on medical or educational grounds and would be deemed essential in the context of other criteria identified in this policy
- where a child requires transport on medical grounds and no suitable public transport exists.
If you consider, using the above criteria, your child may qualify for free school transport you will be required to complete an application form. You can find the application form by clicking on the link below.
