RESOLVED: Cabinet
approved the new home to school travel policy for Hackney to take
effect in the autumn term 2024.
 
REASONS FOR DECISION
 
Local authorities must publish their home to
school policy for children of compulsory school age on their
website and in paper form. Local authorities should keep their
school travel policy under regular review to make sure it continues
to meet local needs and that it complies with statutory
requirements.
 
The consultation was on an updated home to
school policy for Hackney that takes account of recently published
statutory guidance on travel for children of compulsory school age
(5-16 years). It also reflects current guidance on travel support
for young people aged over 16 years.
