Transport

Transport

Our pupils come from a wide range of areas using the School’s extensive transport network covering Surrey, Kent, Sussex, London, Purley and Croydon.

 *** Train Chaperone Service Clapham Junct – Upper Warlingham***

Our coaches and minibus offer morning and after school services plus a late coach/minibus service to enable pupils to stay to after school activities or to use the staffed school library at the end of the day. Below you will find details of this academic year’s provision – services are reviewed each summer in liaison with current and joining families.

Caterham Station – minibus shuttle

A free shuttle minibus provides a morning and evening (dependent upon seat availability) connection service from Caterham train stations to/from the School.

Our transport service routes change from year to year depending on demand from our families. Listed below are the current pick up locations on offer.
Please do get in contact if you have any pick up requests or need any assistance.

The School reserves the right to alter routes, timings and pick up/drop off points when road works, traffic and external influences effect the normal operation of these routes.

 

Timings

All return transport leaves the School between 4.15pm and 4.20pm daily, Monday to Friday.   

 

Late Buses

We offer a limited late bus service, departing at 6.00pm, for pupils who have to stay behind after school for co-curricular activities or turnouts. The late buses leave the front of School promptly at 6.00pm each evening and pupils may sign up for this service on the day of travel only.  Pupils should sign up for the late bus using the late bus application. The Late bus application is pupil focused and pupils need to sign up on their school iPad device. All bus users will be sent an activation email containing the detail required to use the late bus application (located on their iPad) or the online URL. Lower 6 & Upper 6 will need to log on with the URL as they will be using their own devices.

The app will be live from 7:30am with a closing time of 2:30pm. The application will not allow anymore entries after 2:30pm. This is to enable collation of routes to get numbers and to book buses as required. Reception will also have on behalf rights in case pupils forget devices. 

The application is only available to bus users. Parents will not be able to book for their children. 

If pupils have not signed up for a seat on the late service by 2.30pm we may not be able to accommodate them in which case, they will need to make an alternative arrangement with you to travel home.

 It is not possible to offer this late service to all locations so you may wish to find the nearest stop from the list below that would assist in the journey home.
