School transport

This information relates to the law and transport to school / setting for your child or young person.


The Home to school travel and transport guidance provides information for all children.

Post-16 transport to education and training is separate guidance for young people post 16.

There is additional guidance on arrangements for children and young people with Statements of SEN in the SEN Code of Practice 2001, and for those with EHC plans in the SEND Code of Practice 2015.

Derbyshire's Local Offer has information on the home to school transport guidance, post-16 transport, alongside transport when a young person has an EHCP.

If your child has an Education, Health and Care Plan, you should email sendtransport@derbyshire.gov.uk for information about assistance with home to school transport or you can also contact your local SEND Officer.
