  • Transport Policy Statement for Learners Aged 16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Learners Aged 19 and Over
    Leicester City Council Education and Children’s Services Transport policy statement for learners aged 16-18 in further education and continuing learners aged 19 and over. Valid from: 1 August 2015 to 31 July 2016 1. Summary of Policy Statement and Main Objectives This document sets out the support available to young people of Leicester entering or continuing with full-time Post 16 Education to encourage participation and prevent transport being a barrier to young learners. It provides the most up to date details of charges and means testing procedures. It gives advice on the support available to learners with learning/mobility difficulties to encourage independent travel to and from the place of learning. 2. Details of concessionary fares. Leicester City Council – provision for mainstream learners A bus pass costing £425 is available for Leicester resident pupils over statutory school age if they live more than 3 miles but less than 20 miles from the school/college attended, and if the student is aged 16, 17 or 18 at the start of the college year. The pass allows travel on both First and Arriva buses to get to school/college. There are alternatives to the Leicester City Council Bus Pass. If you only need to use a bus from one operator, you could get better value in terms of price and flexibility by purchasing a season ticket directly from a commercial bus operator. Before you apply for a Leicester City Council bus pass we strongly urge you to consider all of the commercially available alternatives. Most commercially available season tickets allow you to travel at any time and on any day including weekends.
