Disabled children are more likely to travel further to nursery, school or college, and unlike their non-disabled peers, many can't travel independently. Many also need to be in education or training for longer to achieve the skills they need. So school transport is fundamental to enable them to access education.

The Department for Education has launched a consultation on the revised statutory home to school transport guidance, following Contact's instrumental School Transport Inquiry.
