Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
Hi - can anyone tell me if a bus from Burnham still runs to BHS (and back) - and, if so, how much it costs, what time does it go and return, and who do we need to contact. I asked the school - but got no reply.
Thanks
Thanks

Hi Booklady,
Have you tried the Passenger Transport Officer on 01296 383738?

The bus certainly runs. I've seen girls waiting in both Lent Rise Road and at BGS. Can't help you on cost though. It appears you know that it isn't free from Burnham
Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
My DD takes the bus from Burnham.
It's a private coach company and cost us £6.50 a day which works out...wait for it....! £1,400 a year approx.
They have various stops. Two are down Gore Road and one is Lent Rise area. Not sure on the others.

Thanks Chez - cheap compared to private school though!! Thanks for the response - did you have to contact them separately or did the school give you the info once you had the place?
Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
School didn't give us information. I found out from a lady whose daughter goes to Beaconsfield High School.
If you need info just email me on cheryl at higginsfamily.eclipse.co.uk and I'll e mail details.
Chez: I have edited your email address to prevent it being picked up by spam robots.
Clearly anyone emailing Chez should substitute the ampersand "@" for the word at. Sally-Anne

Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
is Burnham in catchment for Becky high? If so why is transport not provided?
Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
Would imagine the catchment school is Burnham Grammar but haven't looked at the catchment maps!!
scary mum
Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
There is an area - including Burnham - where you are in catchment for Becky High but no bus is provided if you get in as Burnham Grammar is closer and you are also in catchment for that. My DD is set on BHS though - so we'll have to see what happens!
Thanks for the offer of the details - we'll be in touch if we get a place!!!

Re: Bus - Burnham to Beaconsfield High School
Booklady, is there anywhere else in the county where this happens, ie where transport is not provide to a catchment school because there is another closer catchment school?
