When we receive an application for transport assistance for a child or young person with special educational needs or disabilities it will be assessed by our colleagues in the Council's SEND team. This is because they are best placed to undertake such an assessment as they have access to your child's Educational, Health & Care Plan (EHCP).  

A copy of our SEND transport information handbook for parents and carers can be found here, or by clicking on the image on the left. This booklet provides information in relation to transport arrangements we put in place to support children attending special schools.
