A comprehensive and extensive school bus service is operated on behalf of the school by the County Council. Service buses also pass regularly
along the A6 which is linked by a footpath direct to the school. For up-to-date information about routes, services operators, fares and
timetables, parents should contact School Traveline on 0871 200 2233.
Services operating in 2019 to and from the
school car park cover the following
districts: Preston, Fulwood, Clifton, Lea,
Cottam, Catforth, Woodplumpton, Ingol,
Wychnor, Longsands and Sherwood.
Regular public service buses link Bilsborrow
and Barton with the school. Another
regular service from outside the school
gate links us to Goosnargh.
Parents who bring and collect their children
by car are requested NOT to bring the cars
into the school grounds as the total
parking area in front of the school is
required by the school buses and the area
at the back of the school via Sandygate
Lane is a car park and sports area.
Parents are not supposed to drop off in car
park.
Pupils may come to school by bicycle
provided that they have completed an
approved course in safe cycling and have a
cycle helmet. Cyclists bring and store
their cycles on the school premises at
their own risk. It is recommended that
cycles are insured and must be secured
while on site with an appropriate cycle
lock.
Pupils discuss the issue of safety, including
travel safety, in PHSE lessons.
In addition, the Safer Travel telephone
number is 0300 123 6782
