Closed Fund direct bus services to school for all school-aged children

Closed on

We would like to see direct bus services to and from school to homes for all students who want it, especially disabled children or where parents feel concerned regarding their child's safety.

We believe this could make a real change to child safety. 789 children (aged 1 to 15) died in the year of 2020. Although this is the lowest on record it is extremely high. Walking home or making extremely long journey home by themselves can be not only stressful & overwhelming but unsafe for students. We believe funding direct bus services between home and school could help reduce safety risks.
