School Buses

 

School buses for entitled pupils

Southern Vectis runs some school buses on behalf of the Isle of Wight Council for entitled pupils.  Students travelling on these school buses will need a Term Ticket or Privilege Seat Scheme ticket issued by the Council. 

Term tickets for students eligible for free home-to-school transport can be collected from your school reception on the first day of term. Southern Vectis is unable to give advice regarding the provision of Term Time tickets. All enquiries on these buses should be directed to the School Transport section at the IOW Council who can be contacted on 01983 823780 or by emailing transport.info@iow.gov.uk

For timetable details please visit the IOW Council websites at https://www.iow.gov.uk/Residents/schools-and-learning/School-Transport/School-Bus-Routes

 

School buses for non-entitled pupils

Southern Vectis also runs a network of school routes for non-entitled pupils. We are unable to give any advice on whether your child will be eligible for a Council Term Ticket, all enquiries should be made to the School Transport section at the IOW Council who can be contacted on 01983 823780 or by emailing transport.info@iow.gov.uk

Students who are not eligible for free transport can use our network of school buses across the Island as below. Students travelling on these routes will need to purchase a Southern Vectis Freedom ticket (although daily fares are also available).
