There is a NGHS mini bus/coach that picks up at The Cruwn on the Wergs Road.
Mainly year 10 girls up it’s orgabised through Ultinate in Newport.

Might be worth speaking to them or write an email with your contact details and ask School to send it out to all new yr7 parents in Wolves.

Hello

I am interested in the coach service from Wolverhampton, Penn area to Newport girls. I also have a friends son that needs to get Adams from the same area ? Is the coach only for Newport girls.

Just curious as I may have misunderstood - it’s £10 a day, there are roughly 190 school days a year, so it will cost £1900 per school year per child? That’s a huge cost for transport.

Edited to add that with 16 children that’s £30,400 a year for the minibus company, or £160 a day? Sounds like they may be ripping you off there?

I do agree it sounds expensive. However, just for some context, it costs £900+ for a place on the AGS/NGHS coach with about 50 seats (I think). Clearly the coach companies do pretty well out of this trade too. With that in mind £10 per day for a 16 seater does not seem too bad ... !

Gosh that is a lot my son went on the Ultimate coach for his first year and we didn't pay much more than the school coach. Contact Terry (owner) at Ultimate in Newport or the office is pretty much opposite Adams.
