Vectare will be able to assist with timetable and journey information and planning. Where possible, we will endeavour to ensure that a guaranteed connection is made between the train and coach, ensuring that the journey is as seamless as possible. The most cost effective travel option for your daughter is to purchase an annual return coach pass. These are available at a significant discount compared with purchasing ad hoc travel. A smaller discount is also available for those purchasing annual coach passes for one direction only (AM or PM). The cost per journey is higher for ad hoc journeys due to the variable nature of this travel requirement. All annual coach passes are billed termly, so you don’t have to pay for the entire coach pass up front. Further routes

If you cannot find a travel option that works for you and your daughter, please contact Vectare. They will do their best to ensure that the journey to and from school is as seamless, straightforward and easy as possible. In some instances, it might not be possible for your daughter to travel to school by coach, in which case, Vectare will register your interest and let you know if we are able to operate a service in the future. One such example of this is the expansion to cover Richmond and Kew, as well as a quicker journey time from Central London - both originated as parental requests.
