Your safety is our top priority. Whether you travel to school or college by bus, train, taxi, bicycle, on foot, or by any other means, you must act responsibly and follow safety guidelines at all times.
If you travel by bus, you must also follow the rules set out in the School Bus Travel Behaviour Code. These rules are designed to protect you and others.
Failure to follow the Behaviour Code may result in action being taken by your school or college. This could include losing access to school transport or, in serious cases, being excluded from school.
