We have tried to make the pass buying process as simple as possible, This is difficult as each school seems to be doing different things, so for now we will only be taking payments to last until 26th March.
You will then be able to purchase the summer term pass after 26th March.
Your child will not be issued with a pass for the remainder of the Spring term, the drivers will have a list of students who have paid until after Easter.
We will be open to take card payments over the phone from WEDNESDAY 3RD MARCH our prefered payment method is via our online shop.
STEP 1 - VISIT OUR ONLINE SHOP
STEP 2 - Please click on the route the student travels on
STEP 3 - Choose which day your child will return to school
STEP 4 - Follow payment process, you do not need a paypal account to do this.
If you are one of the parents who purchased a spring term pass back in January you should have received an email regarding your payments. We will adjust the amount shown to reflect what day your
child returned to school.
