Caerphilly council is proposing to change the way it provides Home to School Transport for learners across the county borough from September 2026. The proposed changes would see all mainstream home to school transport provision for primary and secondary schools fall in line with the relevant statutory distance criteria as determined by Welsh Government.
Residents were given the chance to have their say about the proposals during a six-week consultation period, which has now closed. The consultation feedback will be considered by the council’s Education Scrutiny Committee before being presented to Cabinet for a final decision in early 2025.
The key dates are as follows:
- Thursday 23rd January 2025 – Joint Scrutiny Committee Meeting for consideration
- Wednesday 19th February 2025 – Cabinet for final decision.
