Suffolk County Council’s (SCC) School Travel Policy has been amended to comply with the Department for Education’s Travel to school for children of compulsory school age Statutory guidance for local authorities, which replaces the previous Home to school travel and transport guidance.
SCC have also taken the opportunity to make some minor text changes which add clarity and consistency to the policy. These changes do not require public consultation or affect the meaning or scope of the policy, in terms of the eligibility criteria for SCC funded school travel.
This policy has been published on the Suffolkonboard website: https://buff.ly/3E7pDeX
