School Transport
General Transport Information
School bus passes for catchment students can only be issued by the School Transport department at County Hall, by calling 0116 305 7055. The school is not allowed to allocate students to buses.
To find out if you are eligible for free school transport, contact passengertransport@leics.gov.uk
Out-of-catchment students can view home to school transport information on Roberts Travel Group website. On the site, you will find timetable information and prices for each of the nine services run by Roberts. These services cover many of the surrounding villages to Ashby School. Travel passes can be purchased online and various payment options are available.
Passes for the next academic year will go on sale around Easter as services do fill quickly. To take advantage of the company's 10-payment option, applications must be received by 10 June 2021.

Late buses
Late buses are available free of charge on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 4.30pm to provide transport to students living in catchment.
Late buses allow students to take part in organised activities, revision classes, coursework support or private study/ homework after school.
Due to financial constraints, the school is unfortunately not able to offer free late transport to out of catchment students.
