Our Pupils come from far and wide within Birmingham and Sutton Coldfield and beyond. We, therefore, have buses that run directly to and from the school serving Sutton Coldfield, Quinton etc. For more information contact The Green Bus Company (0845) 234 2222, or visit their website at www.thegreenbus.org or read their factsheet here.
Public buses also provide easy access to the school. Information concerning routes and timetables is readily available from Network West Midlands Traveline (0871) 200 22 33 and the Network West Midlands website at www.networkwestmidlands.co.uk. Trains from Lichfield and Sutton Coldfield go to Aston Station where a bus provides transport to and from the school.
If you are interested in purchasing or renewing a SchoolsConnect pass there are details in a letter from Central Connect here including a £20 discount if you buy before the end of May. The application form can be found here.
