Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Youth
School Transport Scheme: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Miriam Flynn:
It is hard to answer without knowing the exact individual detail. I am happy to look into it in more detail for the Deputy and revert back. The scheme is based on eligibility guidelines, so it is important to know whether it is a primary or a post-primary pupil that the Deputy is talking about. If it is primary, the pupil needs to be within 3.2 km and attending their nearest school, and if it is post-primary, it is 4.8 km.
