We have been advised to remind all parents about the important changes introduced this year regarding the travel assistance application process from September 2026.

West Northamptonshire Council will no longer automatically issue travel passes to new pupils attending their nearest or geographically associated schools. Instead, all parents and carers must submit an application for travel assistance, so that eligibility can be considered.

Applications can be made directly by parents or carers via the West Northamptonshire Council website (https://www.westnorthants.gov.uk/school-travel-assistance)
