Our school bus service (JBS), transports students to and from our school site safely.

All bookings, whether ad-hoc or as a new passenger, can be made via the JBS online booking system at jbs.vectare.co.uk. The website also incorporates an interactive journey planner, allowing passengers to enter their post code to find their closest bus stop, as well as accessing the JBS Travel Guide which includes further details of the service, payment and our terms and conditions. The routes available are continually being updated, so it is always best to check the most up to date routes by visiting jbs.vectare.co.uk.
