Transport to school
We are pleased to advise that Warrington Borough Council is making the Home to School transport process more streamlined and accessible for all with our online service.
Please see link to the Website where the online form is located. www.warrington.gov.uk/schooltransport.
Your online application will be treated as your request for next year’s student travel pass. The pass will be despatched to you towards the end of August 2022, in time for the new academic year.
Please be aware a large number of applications are processed by this office during the summer months. In order to ensure that your pass is issued before the start of the new school year, please complete the process online by 8th July 2022. If you fail to complete the process promptly it will be assumed that your child will not require a pass for the 2022/2023 academic year.
Please remember that if your child leaves school before the end of the school year, it is important that you return the bus pass to The School Transport Team immediately.
If you have any issues completing our online form or require any further assistance, please contact our team via email – schooltransport@warrington.gov.uk or by telephoning 01925 442974.
