Will your child be enrolled in school in 2023? Do you live more than 4.5km for your child’s school and outside of a designated Public Transport Area?
You may be eligible for Transport Assistance, and must apply online before November 26 2022. If you are already registered and have had a change of residential address or school, you must submit a new application for Transport Assistance.
To be considered for Transport Assistance, a parent/carer of the student must complete an online application for Transport Assistance. SBS may require clarification and/or additional information before Transport Assistance is assessed.
