From experience of one of the other bus routes their timings are pretty accurate. Children from both schools seem to enjoy their bus socialising.

Is there a timetable for these buses anywhere?

whoops I see it doesn't have a timetable. In all the guff they give you on the open day there is one though.

My daughter uses the service - hers is very reliable. Obviously occasional traffic problems cause delays but on the whole it is great. If you want to know the timings for a particular route, you could call and ask. If you are offered a place you will be sent the coach details at the same time though and you are advised to book it quickly.

It was funny last week - she was on her way to the stop at usual time and got a BBM from her friend to say it was really early. She ran and just caught it but so many had not it was virtually empty. They all made the driver go back round and start again at the beginning of the route. Needless to say it wasn't their usual driver! That is the only time anything like that has happened in 5 years.
