You may see school transport described as SEN transport or SEND transport. Our service supports children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities who need suitable transport to their education setting.

A useful starting point is understanding the whole journey: where the passenger will be collected, the school or college they attend, their timetable and any support needed along the way. We discuss these requirements before confirming what we can provide.

For more about our wider service, visit our specialist school transport page.

Familiar people and clear communication

Routine and familiar faces can make a difference to the school day. Wherever possible, we aim to keep the same driver and passenger assistant on a route.

Tell us about communication preferences and anything that may help the passenger feel more comfortable during the journey. Where a passenger assistant is part of the arrangement, the support required should be discussed alongside the route and vehicle.

Families and education settings can contact our office to discuss questions about UCARZ journeys. If transport is arranged by another organisation, please also follow its process for requesting changes.
