Home-to-school transport for children with SEND in Camden
From Kentish Town and Kilburn down to Holborn, Camden routes mix quiet residential streets with some of London's busiest roads.
We run SEN school transport for Camden Council's travel assistance routes, special schools, resource bases and colleges, and for families with a personal travel budget.
What every Camden route includes
- A fixed driver and passenger assistant, so children see familiar faces each morning
- Wheelchair-accessible minibuses with a rear lift and tested restraints
- Pupil passports and travel plans followed on every journey
- Text alerts to families and schools at pick-up and handover
- A direct line to the coordinator who runs your route
Journeys we run
- Daily routes to special schools and resource bases in and around Camden
- Single-occupancy journeys for children who need to travel alone
- Post-16 college transport
- Respite, short-break and therapy journeys
Local knowledge
Many Camden journeys cross Euston Road, Camden High Street or Kentish Town Road at peak times. We plan pick-up times around how long those roads really take at 8am, not a map estimate, so children aren't left waiting or rushed out of the door.
Technology on every Camden route
Live tracking, alerts and monthly reports, so you always know how each journey went.
-
Live GPS tracking
Every minibus is tracked in real time, so our office always knows exactly where each route is.
-
Pick-up and handover alerts
Families and schools get a text when the minibus is on its way and when each child is safely handed over.
-
Digital pupil passports
Each child's travel plan on the driver's device for their own route only, updated the moment plans change.
-
Onboard CCTV
Interior and forward-facing cameras on every vehicle, with footage handled securely under UK GDPR.
-
Monthly route reports
Punctuality, incidents, staff changes and feedback for each route, ready for your contract reviews.
-
Digital vehicle checks
A recorded walkaround check before every shift. Any defect is fixed before the vehicle goes out.
How do I apply for SEND transport in Camden?
Families apply to Camden Council's SEND travel assistance service, usually alongside the child's EHC plan. The council decides who is eligible and arranges transport with approved operators. Camden Council's website has the current application form and deadlines.
Can you take my child to a special school outside Camden?
Often, yes. We run routes to special schools in neighbouring boroughs, including Islington and Haringey. Tell us the school and we'll confirm whether we can cover it.
Do you provide passenger assistants in Camden?
Yes. Every route that needs one has a PATS-trained, enhanced DBS-checked passenger assistant, and the same assistant travels with the child each day.
Do you have wheelchair-accessible minibuses?
Yes. Our accessible minibuses have a rear lift and tested wheelchair restraints, and staff are trained in wheelchair tie-down and occupant restraint.
