HOME TO SCHOOL TRANSPORT - AUGUST 2021
Published: Tue 17 Aug 2021

We provide free Home to School Transport (HTS) for East Lothian pupils who live more than two miles away from their local primary or secondary school.

The pupil's home address is defined as being that of their parent or legal guardian, not the address of a childminder or relative who may care for them on school days.

In the event of parental separation, the home address is defined as the address of the guardian receiving the Child Benefit payment.

Free school transport isn't available if you choose to send your child to a school that isn't their local primary or secondary school.

Please contact your school office for advice on how to submit an electronic application form for Home to School Transport. Paper applications are no longer issued.
