Transport System
At King Edward’s we recognise how important it is to provide suitable transport for our pupils and currently circa 700 pupils use it on a daily basis. Arrival time at school is approximately 08:15 and buses depart at 16:10.
Bus Prefects act as a point of contact for pupils on each bus. At the start of the school year prefects are provided with a written brief of the action to take in an emergency and receive a verbal briefing from the Assistant Head (Pastoral).
To accommodate those in after school activities we offer a late bus service, which operates separate bus routes to the daily routes. Late buses do not have all the same drop off points as the daily buses, and are provided to save parents the drive into Southampton during rush hour. Late buses depart at 17:30 and are on a request stop basis; stop times are dependent upon the passenger requirements each day.
Places on the buses are allocated in strict order of receipt of the electronic registration form. The termly fare is payable in advance and appears on the school bill issued by the Accounts Department. If parents wish to terminate the use of the bus, one term’s written notice is required, otherwise a full term’s fare will be charged. Should you require any further details regarding the operation of the King Edward VI Transport Association (KETA) including the stops and timetables for each route, full details can be found on the school website www.kes.hants.sch.uk under ‘Admissions’.
