School transport is a big concern for families with disabled children. We hear from many families whose child is clearly eligible for school transport, but they have been refused. And from families whose child has been offered unsuitable transport.

That’s why we’re holding a special Facebook Q&A over in our closed (private) Facebook group on 17 October, when you can ask our education experts any questions you have about school or college transport for your child. It’s a great opportunity for anyone worried about their child’s school transport to get immediate, expert advice and help.

Join us on Thursday 17 October 10 – 11:30 am

To take part in the Q&A, you will have to be a member of our Facebook Group for parent carers. Simply request to join, answer the three membership questions when prompted, and one of our moderators will let you in!

The session will take place in writing (not a video livestream). This means you can stop by our group anytime between 10am and 11:30am on Thursday 19 October to ask your question in the comments under our Q&A post. Then, simply come back later at a time that suits you to read our team’s reply.

Can’t make 17 October?

Once the session has finished, you’ll be able to read through all the answers at a time that suits you.

And you can also take a look at our school transport webpage which explains your rights and entitlements including:

  • Which children are eligible for free school transport.
  • What sort of transport can be provided.
  • How to apply for school transport.
  • How to challenge a school transport decision.
