This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Extend the age which children are eligible for a place on the school bus
More details
Now that the Government has decreed that children need to be in full time education until 18, it is important in rural areas, where a school bus service exists, that they have access to this service.
Currently after year 11 the children can no longer use the school bus.
If the child has been using a school bus to get them to school they should be allowed to continue to use the service until they leave full time education at 18.
Many children in rural areas will face considerable problems getting to school until they are 18, and may not be able to at all.
This petition closed early because of a General Election
