Hi everyone. DD will be sitting the 11+ for For Chelmsford girls grammar in September. I just wondered if anyone currently uses the coach service from Goodmayes to Chelmsford & how much it costs. Thanks

Can't they get the train in? Much quicker and means they can participate in extra curricular activities after school

We’re thinking that the coach would be an easier option for us. On days where she might have extra curricular activities I could pick her up. That just isn’t feasible for every day as I also have a younger child.

Just in case you change your mind . It's £391 for the term, for a ticket that can be used any day, any time, from the first to the last day of its validity.

Goodmayes to Chelmsford looks like a forty minute journey (change at Shenfield, dead easy, just follow the right kilts ), but I suppose it depends on how close you are to the station at your end. Ours would definitely be on a train rather than in a private coach on the A12, however.

Thanks. Getting to a station or pick up point in the morning isn’t a problem. We still have time, but just looking at all options. Thanks for your advice.
