Further Questions

Do I need a ticket?

 You need a MetroCard and ticket not a First Bus ticket.

  • You can use your Metro Card on all buses in West Yorkshire (Including The First buses and LCA buses). With a First Bus Ticket you can only get on First buses and not get on the LCA bus.
  • You can pay for the tickets at any place where there is a PayZone (many newsagents have these), online or at the Bus Station.
  • Get your metro card here.

When will I arrive at and leave school?

All three services will arrive at school at 8:10am and the buses will depart from school at 3:00pm.

How should I behave on the bus?

We are certain that the new buses will have a positive impact on the travel arrangements of many of our youngsters. However, as with all parts of Academy life, we will have the highest expectations of behaviour on these buses. Therefore, if these expectations are not met then it will be at the Academy’s discretion whether pupils will travel on the buses.

Use it or lose it

The bus service is something that is a privilege to the Academy and if we do not use the buses, then they will be given to a different school.  

If you have any questions please ask your tutor, Mr Ford, Mr Ray or your Year managers.
