Personal Transport Budgets
Applying for a Personal Transport Budget
If you are unsure if your child is eligible for transport assistance, you’ll need to speak with your EHCP coordinator, who will:
- assess the student’s eligibility
- pass the eligible student’s details to the client transport team, who will send you a link to the online SEND transport application form
You will need to complete the online application form by the deadline stated.
Only eligible students can apply using the online application form. If you need help to complete the application form, please contact us.
If you choose to apply for a PTB, we’ll:
- contact you to discuss your child’s needs and how you plan to use the PTB. This will determine the appropriate PTB amount
- assess whether we can arrange transport at a lower cost
Successful applications
If we can offer you a PTB, we'll:
- write to you to confirm your PTB offer
- ask you to sign a parent or carer agreement
- ask you to provide your bank details to receive the PTB payments
- we will set up your PTB and arrange for payments to start at the beginning of the PTB period
