Mini-Bus service An independent mini-bus transport company, Ecole Express, services the school. It can be contacted on 0192 323 6509. The cost is £50 per week per child.
School Travel Plan The school has written a school travel plan, which it submitted to Camden council in 2003. The objectives of Camden Council are to resolve the problem of car congestion in London and the school travel plan encourages measures such as walking to school or car sharing. The parents' association produces a list of addresses to assist car sharing.
At the request of Camden council, we wish to inform parents that Camden Council , after a six moths review of its cross party strategy on the School run has agreed to continue with the policy of reducing dispensation permits for car parking in residential areas in the borough. Camden will enforce this parking policy. Pay and display bays may be available in the school vicinity, but there are very few of them. You may therefore be interested to enquire about your school travel plan , which gives advice and support on traveling to school in a more environmentally sustainable way. For more information on Camden’s initiative, please click on this link. For information on cycling or walking, please visit http://www.tfl.gov.uk/cycles/ or http://www.camden.gov.uk/ccm/content/transport-and-streets/cycling-and-pedestrians/ Information on parking near the school is distributed to parents each year.
