Kent County Council (KCC) has launched a public consultation on its proposed new Home to School Transport Policy.
KCC’s transport policies are currently expressed through a combination of formal statutory duties, Member decisions and parental guidance. The new policy will combine these into a cohesive transport policy, to ensure full transparency and provide a single point of reference, making it easier and more convenient for parents and students.
For post-16 students, no changes are planned for 2023-24, but KCC is required by the Department for Education to consult each year, regardless of any changes, to ensure the Policy provides a full picture of the available transport and support.
For ages 4-16 a number of changes would come into effect from September 2024, and the new policy’s aims include:
Other changes under consultation for introduction in 2024 include the way KCC fulfils its statutory duties to support 16+ learners, including those with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Parents and students should consider these when making decisions about education for that year.
The main changes proposed are to:
The survey can be accessed via: https://letstalk.kent.gov.uk/school-transport-policy Anyone who needs help taking part in the consultation, have a question or need paper copies of the consultation material, can email schooltransportconsultation@kent.gov.uk or phone 03000 418 796.
The survey runs until 21 March 2023.
