As a regional academy with a wide catchment area, The JCB Academy provides a dedicated transport service to ensure learners can travel safely and efficiently. This service is operated by trusted transport companies and is partly subsidised by the academy.
All learners use the academy’s transport service unless they live within walking distance.
Routes and times are reviewed annually and may change to meet demand.
