Who can SEND Home to School Transport Service help?

Our SEND Home to School Transport Service can help children and young people that have a:

  • Educational Health and Care Plan (EHCP)
  • SEND statement
  • physical disability or mobility problem (including temporary conditions)  
  • special school or special educational setting (agreed with Newcastle City Council)  
  • medical condition  
  • disability causes significant problems with their behaviour  

We can also provide discretionary travel support for:

  • children under 5 with SEND travelling to nurseries or primary school
  • young people over the age of 16 who access further education
Bus

Not all children with an EHCP or who attend a special school will need SEND travel assistance. Each child’s needs and situation are different. We will look at each child and application individually.
