You can use our Transport Eligibility Checker to find out if your child will qualify for school transport. The Transport Eligibility Checker only provides an indication of potential eligibility at that time. You MUST apply for transport assistance online to receive a formal decision based on your circumstances (i.e. admissions preferences and distance to school) and any changes to school provision that might affect eligibility (e.g. school closures, amalgamations).  

Please note a formal online application for transport assistance will still need to be completed on EA Connect.

If additional information is required or any difficulty is experienced, users can contact the Transport Helpdesk, Monday - Friday: 9am - 5pm by:
