Pipers Corner School | Coach Booklet 2021-2022

Introduction Our coach network consists of fourteen routes covering the Chilterns and the surrounding areas, established to support busy working families whose circumstances may vary. Coach travel helps us to reduce congestion along Pipers Lane, which can get particularly busy during pick-up and drop-off times. We aim to accommodate as many girls who want places on coaches but priority will be given to those who wish to use the coach most.

Safety of our students is paramount, with Sixth Form coach Prefects for each route and coach drivers who are DBS checked. This service is for students in Prep and above. All students are permitted to bring phones although strict usage applies on site.

Use our interactive Coach Routes Map to find your nearest stop.

Prices

Commitment

Charges for occasional use are £6 for a single and £12 for a return journey. There is also a 25% sibling discount. Charges for coach travel are payable in advance.

As contracts with the coach companies are made on an annual basis, we ask you to commit to using the coach for the full year. If circumstances change for any reason, we require a term’s notice in writing that your daughter will no longer be using the coach.

Each stop is allocated a band. The charge per term for each band for this academic year is: • • • •

Band A | £532 Band B | £480 Band C | £430 Band D | £164

As an exception to this, if your daughter participates in an extra-curricular club or activity after school, we can make minor adjustments at short notice. If your daughter is learning to drive she can be placed on ‘rolling notice’ for when she may no longer need to take the coach.

Students must comply with the Code of Conduct for Coach Travel. If they do not comply with the code, they will be asked to make alternative travel arrangements.

Charges are set according to how many journeys are booked: Journeys per week

Guidance on coach use Travel on the coaches is not supervised by staff - staff will register Prep girls onto coaches every afternoon, and there are student prefects appointed for each route.

We advise that coach travel is only suitable for students in Prep and above.

Girls who travel by coach are encouraged to carry mobile phones.

What we expect from you: • • • •

ensure your daughter is at the stop each morning, ideally 5 minutes before the scheduled departure time. arrive for afternoon collection in good time, preferably standing at the stop so you are visible to your daughter and vise-versa. have a clear strategy in place should there be deviation from the normal schedule for whatever reason. ensure your daughter has a fully charged mobile phone so that she can contact you if the normal routine is disrupted.

What you can expect from the drivers: • •

if a coach arrives early at the stop, it should not depart before the scheduled time. if any girl expresses concern, including her parent or other responsible adult is not waiting for them, the driver has been instructed to stop the coach and ensure the parent is contacted via mobile to agree a suitable solution.

Girls are responsible for alerting the driver should they be unable to see a parent waiting for them, or if they have any other concerns about getting off the coach.

It is essential that all girls have the ability and confidence to look after themselves in case of unscheduled events occurring, regardless of their age.
