Transport to and from the Academy

Travelling to and from the Academy can take place in many ways.

We always encourage our students to use environmentally friendly means of travelling to and from the Academy where possible.

During the current pandemic, we encourage all students that are using public transport to follow Government guidance at all times in order to keep themselves and others around them safe.

Whilst students are travelling to and from the Academy, they represent the Academy, and we are proud that they conduct themselves respectfully and show compassion to others around them.

All requests for School Bus Passes must be made to the Local Authority and not the Academy.

You can find more government information on Free School transport HERE

or from the City Council HERE

We encourage all students to use the pedestrian crossing on Horrocks Avenue when crossing the road.

his is particularly important as young people are one of the most vulnerable road users, especially when traveling to and from school.
