  • Transport Policy Statement for Students Aged16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Students Aged 19 and Over
    Local Authority Transport Partnership Policy Statement 2014/15 Transport policy statement for students aged16-18 in further education and continuing students aged 19 and over Department Responsible: Children Adults & Families 1. Summary of Policy Statement and Main Objectives (this section should give an overview/statement of intent of what the LA’s transport policy is and what the subsequent desired outcomes are). This policy statement sets out the way in which South Tyneside Council has decided to exercise its powers and duties in relation to the provision of school and college transport for learners aged 16-19 in accordance with Section 509 of the Education Act 1996, as amended by Section 83 of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. The policy seeks to ensure that no South Tyneside learner is prevented from continuing in further education due to lack of transport provision or lack of financial support with transport costs. It outlines the provision of transport schemes and assistance for post 16 learners who live and study in South Tyneside or those learners who live in South Tyneside and attend an educational establishment outside of the Borough if it is the nearest provider offering the appropriate course. This document sets out the current policy of South Tyneside Council, which it should be noted could be subject to change in the future. Therefore, this policy does not amount to a legitimate expectation that any service currently offered will continue to be offered. This policy is based on the following key principles: • The promotion of increased independence and social inclusion of young people, recognising the context of their age and ability.
