    Route with additional buses being provided between 0730 and 0930 & 1430 and 1630:

    With regards to identifying school priority buses, these services will be clearly signed and information will be posted at bus stops and online. Government guidance allows for all seats to be occupied on these ‘school services’, doubling their capacity, which is currently limited due to necessary social distancing.  These planned measures are subject to change – please continue to check tfl.gov.uk/reopeningeducation in the coming weeks for the latest information on TfL services and safer travel guidance.

     

    Students ages 11 and over are required to wear a face covering when using public transport services, unless they are exempt on health or equality grounds.  Anyone exempt is advised to carry an exemption card.  Further details can be found at https://tfl.gov.uk/campaign/face-coverings.  

     

    The DfE has published and regularly update official guidance to parents on our return to school and the year ahead.  It can be viewed at here.

     

    If you need to contact us, voicemails are being monitored during normal opening hours.  When calling, please leave your name, the nature of your enquiry and a return contact number.  Alternatively, please feel free to email the school on office@uhs.org.uk.  We will endeavour to respond where needed as quickly as we can.  Please also tell us if your email, phone number or any personal details have changed, so that we can keep our records up to date.
