Transport

Travel to and from the school is organised by the mobility officers based at the school and the local authority with the parents’ wishes in mind.

Children of primary age are normally brought by taxi or minibus to school. They have an escort with them, in addition to the driver. A few primary children travel on public transport with a sighted guide who escorts them to and from school.

At Secondary level again many children travel to and from school by taxi or minibus but some children use public transport with a guide. This is useful training for the day when they learn to travel independently, following successful completion of the relevant mobility training.
