Situated in the Royal County of Berkshire, just 45 minutes from Central London and only 20 minutes to London Heathrow Airport, Heathfield is easily accessible to local, London and international families.

Heathfield School transport is provided by a professional and dedicated team of trained minibus drivers who are proud of the service they provide and would like to welcome your daughter on-board.

Heathfield’s minibus fleet is modern and comfortable; the buses are operated and maintained under current legislation and all our drivers have enhanced DBS clearance and a clean driving licence with D1 category as mandatory.

Minibus drivers complete a driving assessment prior to joining our team of drivers.

We look carefully at the annual routes each Summer and the viability of each route is dependent on the number of pupils that use the service, although and we are always happy to discuss alternative or additional routes and pick up points with parents who would like their daughter to travel to school by bus.
