Transport
Surrey County Council, in accordance with its statutory duty, will provide free home to school travel assistance for children of compulsory school age to the nearest available school from their home address who meet the 'qualifying distance' criteria which are:
- 2 miles or more for children below the age of 8, measured by the shortest walking distance between the home and the school
- 3 miles or more for children aged 8 and above, measured by the shortest walking distance between the home and the school.
Distances will be measured from the address point of the pupil's house, to either the nearest school gate available for pupils to use when measuring to a Surrey school, or the address point of the school property when measuring to a school outside Surrey.
Applications can be made following the below link: Apply for under 16 travel assistance to school - Surrey County Council (surreycc.gov.uk).

Cycling
We want to encourage children to cycle safely to school. We have storage space in our cycle racks to accommodate bicycles. Children may cycle to school with an adult, or if parents/carers are confident in their child's ability to cycle unaccompanied, they may cycle alone with written parental permission.
Cyclists must wear a helmet. The school accepts no liability for loss or damage to any bicycles or equipment left on school premises.
We support the Surrey County Council Bikeability courses for years 4 and 6 and aim to offer these within school where possible.
