Hi, just wondering about transportation options from Hayes Kent to Bexley or Kent schools. Assuming Kent schools accessible by trains from Bromley.

Do schools tend to offer transport from nearby areas?

DS is not due for exams for a while, however just trying to figure out among other things accessibility to schools, and what is a sensible journey time to consider before it becomes too long?

The only schools I know of that have dedicated coach services are the Dartford and Wilmington grammars. The link here will let you see the timetables and the coaches serve all four schools, though I doubt Wilmington comes as far out as Hayes:

Otherwise would just be public bus/ train - not sure what works from Hayes but you'll have a much better idea. St Olave's is c 15 min walk from Orpington station.

Anywhere you can get to by changing at Lewisham, possibly? Or from Catford Bridge to Catford for Orpington?
