Price Bands / How to BookA place on a school bus needs to be booked in advance. This can be done by contacting the Transport Manager at Coventry School Foundation on 024 7627 1328 or by emailing [email protected].

The required journey must be stipulated at the time of booking.
‘Single Journey Tickets’ can be purchased on services where there are seats available after bus passes have been issued. These tickets can be purchased from the Finance Office at Bablake Senior School or obtained from Reception at King Henry VIII Senior School.

Guidelines on using a School BusPupils must arrive at their stop 5 minutes before the advertised time. Pupils must wait at the bus stop and not in cars. If the drivers do not see anyone at the stop then they will not stop.
Bus passes must be shown to the driver on all journeys. If your son/daughter has a mobile phone, it is a good idea to take a photograph of their bus pass just in case they forget it or lose it.
Coach and minibus drivers aim to reach each stop at the advertised pick-up time. However, unforeseen circumstances with traffic delays can result in coaches and minibuses, being delayed at certain stops. On these occasions, pupils must follow the instructions below.
If your bus is late in the morning:
1. Wait 10 minutes; then the most senior pupil at the stop should ring the bus / coach company.
Chapel End Coaches 024 7635 4588 Travel de Courcey 024 7630 2656 Marcus Lewis 024 7659 4290
2. If the bus doesn’t arrive by the new time given by the coach company, please ringCoventry School Foundation Transport Manager 024 7627 1328 / 07590 882921
3. Follow the instructions given to you and please be patient. A replacement vehicle will get to you as soon as possible.
