Walking

Many pupils walk to school. There are two entrances, one via the main bus bay entrance. The other entrance is via Heol Gam. Access after 9am will only be through the main (bus bay entrance). This is for the safety of pupils during school movement times. 

BCBC has recently updated their school transport provision and eligibility (September 2025). BCBC school transport can be reached via: schooltransport@bridgend.gov.uk

BCBC School Transport FAQs

Bus

Buses are either local authority provided, or private.

We have been notified by the School Transport Department at BCBC that the B12 home to school contract will terminate at the end of June 2025.

If you qualify for a Local Authority bus space, letters have been sent to parents/carers (from Bridgend County Borough Council) with updates on eligibility and their policy changes. Please contact BCBC school transport, if you have any queries about your eligibility.

LEA Buses

Cycle

Cycling to school is increasingly popular. There are two bike sheds - one off the Heol Gam Entrance and the other Ewenny Road (Heronsbridge) entrance.  The shelters are not locked during the day, and therefore it is advisable to bring a bike lock to school as well. Helmets must be worn and can be stored in lockers.

E-scooters are not permitted on school premises, or used for commuting by students. This is in line with our school policy and U.K law.

Car

If pupils are to be dropped off by car, this must be done in a safe area outside the school premises. Please refrain from using the main entrance as a turning point. This is due to pedestrian and vehicular road safety. No access to the site is permitted for cars and other vehicles between 8.30 - 9am and 3.15-3.50pm.
