The Post Primary School Transport Scheme is administered and processed from Co Longford Vocational Education Committee Headquarters, Battery Road, Longford.
Application Forms are available from each school. When completed they are forwarded to the VEC for processing. Bus Éireann will then issue Invoices to students and travel permits will be issued consequently.
In order to be eligible for the school transport service a student must: |
- Be enrolled in an approved course at a recognised second level school
- Be not less than 12 years of age on 1st February of the relevant school year
- Have completed sixth standard or equivalent in a primary school
- Reside three miles or more from the post-primary centre
|
Current charges per term are as follows:
Junior Cycle Pupils €33, Senior Cycle Pupils €51 PLC, Concessionary & Youthreach €51 Family Maximum €107.
The charges do not apply to families where the parent(s) / guardian(s) hold a medical card, with the exception of Concessionary Pupils. (Concessionary Pupils are those who reside less than three miles from the post primary centre and who may avail of a transport service if there is space available on the bus)
It is also the role of the Transport Liaison Officer to synchronise and co-ordinate the school transport services at holiday times and mid-term breaks. The ‘standardisation of the school year’ by the Department of Education & Science has been of great assistance in this regard. |
