Transport 

If you have opted for subjects solely at Blessed William Howard, students must arrange their own transport to and from Sixth Form during the fortnight.

If you are taking a subject at another centre in the Partnership, we are unable to provide transport at the beginning and end of each student’s school day. However, we can provide transport within the school day, either transporting our students from a BWH subject to a Partnership one, or vice versa. This will be arranged for you, but you must contact Mrs Broomhall.
