UPDATED 10/7/23

As well as independent bus services to the School, there is a KES shuttle bus that collects pupils from Bath Spa railway station, departing at 8.25am from Manvers Street, opposite the station. This is the latest departure time to ensure that pupils will be at school in good time for morning registration.

The afternoon KES station shuttle bus leaves from outside the Rutherford Sports Centre at 4.05pm prompt, in order to maximise the number of potential links with trains and bus services from the centre of Bath.

There is a flexible pricing arrangement for the shuttle bus, depending on the length of the term. As an example, pricing for the longer Autumn Term 2022/23 are as follows:

  • Autumn Term return journey pass: £137.50 per term
  • Autumn Term morning pass: £80 per term
  • Autumn Term afternoon pass: £80 per term
  • Book of 10 single journey tickets: £20 per book
  • Single journey tickets: £2 each

Passes and tickets are available in advance by emailing Mrs Dulieu at [email protected] or alternatively, by purchasing them directly via the KES Gateway app. The KES station shuttle bus operates on a ticket only basis, so please remind your children that they should not make any cash payments to the driver.

Tickets will either be posted directly to the pupil or distributed via their form tutor at the beginning of the term.

New pupils to the School are advised to ask their Tutor or Head of Year/Sector to help them visit Mrs Dulieu during the new pupil induction morning to collect or purchase passes or tickets.
