This year there will be two coaches in operation, which will follow each other along the route. Morning 07:40 Skipton Bus Station, Stand 8 07:45 Skipton, Gargrave Road Bus Stop (opposite St Stephens) 07:55 Gargrave Bus Stop 08:00 Farm Lane Coniston 08:25 Settle College Car Park Afternoon 15:30 Settle College Car Park 15:55 Farm Lane Coniston 16:00 Gargrave Bus Stop 16:10 Skipton, Gargrave Road Bus Stop (opposite St Stephens) 16:15 Skipton Bus Station, Stand 8 As Skipton and Gargrave are out of our catchment area there is a charge for this transport. For the Academic Year 2017-2018, the cost will remain at £1000.00 per annum, which is to be paid in 10 equal monthly instalments. I attach for your information the Skipton Bus agreement, please ask your son/daughter to sign the document in the relevant section agreeing to code of code on the bus, additionally your signature is also required to confirm your agreement to the required payments. Finally, there is a bank mandate section, which needs to be completed, this year we would like this to be returned to the school, so that we can forward it directly to your bank for processing. Once we have received back the completed agreement your son/daughter will be allocated a seat on the service. Your son/daughter will require a bus pass which needs to be shown to the driver for every journey. No students can be accepted on this service without a valid bus pass. These will be posted out to you once all the above paperwork is in place and they will indicate the coach that your son/daughter is allocated to, either 007A or 007B. If payment is withheld or not paid, the bus pass will be revoked and the student removed from the service as per the agreement. Should you have any queries please contact Mrs Rushton on 01729 822451 ext 268. Yours faithfully Mrs Hayley Kellett HR and Finance Manager .
