Personal Transport Budgets

You can apply for a PTB if we’ve confirmed that the student is eligible for travel assistance due to their special educational needs or disabilities (SEND) and who:

• live within the area where Buckinghamshire is the local council
• have an Education, Health and Care Plan
• attend the school(s) or educational setting(s) outlined in their Education, Health and Care Plan
• meet the eligibility criteria set out in our school transport policies.

There might be circumstances where a PTB is not appropriate. This could include where we can arrange transport for your child at a lower cost. This will be assessed as part of the application process. We’ll make the final decision based on all the available information.

You can read more about eligibility for travel assistance in our school transport policies.
