TRANSPORT GUIDE
Spaces are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. While regular bookings are encouraged, we understand that flexibility is important - ad hoc bookings are available for occasional journeys. To make managing transport even easier, parents can use the Vectare Passenger App, which allows you to book, modify, and track your child’s journeys from your mobile device - giving you control and peace of mind, wherever you are.
Please note: in the afternoon buses normally depart at 5.30pm after activities, however at the end of each half term departure is at 4.30pm.
For enquiries about our transport service, please contact transport@kentcollege.co.uk. Home to school bus services shown here are only available to pupils on roll at Kent College and do not form any kind of publicly available service.
