Wrexham County Borough will provide assisted home to school transport under the following circumstances:
- where a child resides over three miles from their nearest appropriate* secondary school.
- where the route to school is considered to be hazardous by the County Borough Council.
- where a child requires transport on medical grounds and no suitable public transport exists.
- where transport to an identified school is essential in a pupil’s Individual Development Plan (IDP).
This would normally be on medical, social or educational grounds, and would be deemed essential in the context of other criteria identified in this policy.
*An appropriate school is deemed to be the nearest school that provides education for the relevant age and ability of a pupil.
