School and SEND

School and SEND transport in Doncaster

This page is the overview. School journeys and SEND passenger transport each have their own page, so the enquiry starts with the right detail.

Doncaster Transport Services Ltd plans school and SEND travel with families and organisations. Pickup points, times and the person to call are agreed before travel.

Use the school transport page for scheduled school journeys. Use the SEND transport page when the passenger’s needs should lead the conversation. Licence, check and contract details are confirmed in writing when an enquiry needs them.

How the work is approached

  • Scheduled school journeys

    Where a school run repeats, the days, times and addresses are written down before the first collection. Changes are passed to the contact agreed at the start.

  • Individual arrangements

    A single pupil, a sibling group or a short-term placement can be quoted on its own, without being folded into a route that has not been agreed.

  • SEND transport

    Enquiries start with the passenger. Timing, communication and access needs are discussed so the offer matches the person, not a generic vehicle list.

  • Communication

    Families and organisations are told who will reply. The website does not publish pupil names, school lists or route details.

  • Reliability

    A journey is only offered when the timing can be met. If it cannot, that is said at quotation stage rather than on the morning of travel.

  • Passenger dignity

    Collections are calm and discreet. Information shared on a form is used to respond to the enquiry, as described in the privacy policy.

  • Consistency

    Regular travel is planned so the passenger can expect the same kind of arrangement. A named driver or vehicle is confirmed only when it has actually been agreed.

  • Safeguarding-focused principles

    Clear arrangements, limited sharing of personal information, and respect for the passenger guide how enquiries are handled. Any specific check is confirmed in writing for that work.

Contract enquiries

Schools, academy trusts and local authorities can ask about a schedule. Include the area, the type of passenger journey, and the timescale. A reply is an enquiry response, not confirmation that work has been awarded.

School / local authority contract enquiry
