Transport

We operate a fleet of school buses in conjunction with local operators and Birkdale School to take girls to and from the school. These routes can be subject to change dependent on demand and other factors.

Current routes include:

• Chesterfield/Dronfield/Meadowhall
• Gateford/Worksop
• Tickhill/Wickersley
• High Green/Wortley
• Lodge Moor/Fulwood
• Barlborough/Clowne
• Darley Dale/Bakewell
• Hathersage/Hope Valley

Some girls come to school by train, arriving at Sheffield Station. They then catch a bus to our school site. These routes include: Barnsley, Chesterfield, Doncaster, Hope Valley, Rotherham and Worksop.

Bus stops are located on roads close to the School. Local services include buses from Bakewell, Castleton, Chesterfield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Worksop. Further information on routes and times can be obtained from South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive.

From Clarkehouse Road, access to the Senior School entrance is via Rutland Park. Parents should be aware that this route works on a one way system and can become extremely congested at the beginning and end of the school day.

Our walking bus scheme operates from the main school entrance on Rutland Park where Infant and Junior School parents can drop their daughters safely and easily and Sixth Form girls will escort the younger girls through the school grounds to the Junior School.
