Applications for the student puffinpass can be done at any time, please visit the Kiosk in Town for a form. Also, if you are yet to change to a SENIOR pass, just show the customer service staff your letter of acceptance to stay in full time education beyond GCSEs or their equivalent.
If the student has forgotten their puffinpass, they will not be charged providing they are in uniform and are travelling between 7am-9am in the morning and between 3pm-5pm in the afternoon. For those students who do not wear uniform, for example those who attend The Grammar School Sixth Form Centre, it is essential a student puffinpass is used at all times for the free travel.
Dedicated school buses carry only students. Teachers and school staff are not permitted to travel on these buses, unless arrangement has been made with both the head teacher and CT Plus, for example a school trip.
Regular service buses may be used by students. Along with young people, these buses will be carrying commuters and other adult passengers. It is important that those waiting at a stop make it clear they wish to catch the service bus. Being visible, looking at the bus and raising a hand will let the driver know to pull out of the main line of traffic.
Several schools last year asked for travel training to ensure confidence and independence while using the buses. Please let us know if your school would like to also benefit from the scheme.
Applications welcome from both experienced drivers and those wanting to train to be a bus driver. Those residentially qualified and already holding a car licence can join the training programme from the age of 21.
