Primary school commute times, distance and traffic: what is yours like?

[ThatLivelyCat]

Hi please could you tell me what's your commute look like for getting your children to school? ie the time, miles and traffic wise etc And is it Primary or Secondary? Thank you

Primary - about a 12min stroll or 8 mins or so at a brisk walk

Secondary, - they walked. In theory about a 40min walk, but in practice usually about an hour as they wound their way from one friend's house to another, or just dawdled whilst chatting. Great way to start the day and also unwind at the end of the day.

10 min walk primary, council funded 25 min bus ride secondary (bus stop about a 5-10 min walk away)

Primary is 4 minutes walk

Secondary is the same because it's an all through school.

We will likely move further away but still attend. So maybe go up to a mile away.

Primary - 2 miles, 5 min drive.
Secondary - 6 miles, 20 min drive (but they get the bus which is slower).

@ThatLivelyCat are you a journalist?

Primary, 2.5 miles and 6-7 mins drive + few mins walk depending where we park.

Traffic usually ok going but can be busier (and therefore a bit longer) getting home.

No suitable walking route.

Primary - 10 minutes walk, maybe 15 if DD is dragging her feet as it's uphill most the way
Secondary - 20-25minutes walk (not our closest school but where DS wanted to go)

Primary 4 min walk, secondary 15 mins in car, 30 on bus.
