Post 16 Travel Consultation Survey
Please note this consultation seeks views on Post-16 transport assistance only (this is transport, to college or training and includes post-16 courses at a special school) the proposed changes do not affect transport to school.
We are seeking people’s views on a proposed change to the policy we use in providing young people aged 16-19 with free transport to access education or training.
We are not legally obliged to pay for post-16 transport, but we currently provide this discretionary service to more than 100 young people across the borough.
These young people have special educational needs or a disability and we understand the value of providing transport to help them achieve the best possible start in life.
However, we are experiencing an increasing demand for this service and the cost of meeting this demand is significantly exceeding the budget we have available for providing post 16 transport.
We are proposing changes to our policy to ensure that those young people who have the greatest need continue to receive assistance within the limited budget and, wherever possible, to support young people to develop independent travel skills.
To find out about the proposed changes please see the consultation document and draft policy on the documents section of this page.
We have put together two separate surveys to get your thoughts and feedback. Please only fill out the survey that you feel best represents you.
