You may need help with transport because you may not be able to travel in the same way as most young people in the area, for example if:

  • You have a disability which prevents you from walking or using public transport to your place of education.
  • You have to travel further to attend a course suitable for your special educational needs. 

The local authority can help you with travel arrangements if needed and should look at your case individually before making a decision about suitable transport.  

Transport should enable a young person to reach their place of education or training without such stress strain or difficulty that would prevent them from benefiting from the education provided.
