Hi

We are local to SHSB so not an issue for DS2, but if you are near Barking station, C2C to Westcliff then about a 25 minute walk, or carry on to Southend Central and get a bus.

If you can get to a station on the Southend Victoria (Greater Anglia) line, it's about a 15 minute walk from Prittlewell station (the stop before Southend Vic).

Why not come down to Southend a few times with your DS and try out the different routes - see which one he would prefer to use?

I do hope you are asking this as part of your decision making process before entering your DS for the exam, though, and not only very belatedly considering the (fairly straightforward but not inconsiderable) journey for year 7 this September?

Hi Toadmum,

Thanks for info, my son will be starting in September. I’m aware of routes, and I was wondering if anyone was in the same position as my son and wanted a travel buddy.
