Opportunity overview

Supply of school transport services for the 2025-26 academic year to transport 368 students from the Chester/ Ellesmere Port, Wirral area to Calday Grange Grammar School (CH48 8GG) and West Kirby Grammar School (CH48 5DP). The service is required from 02/09/2025 until 17/07/2026 during term time only and will not be required on INSET days and bank holidays. The School collects payments for bus passes and pays for the service, therefore fares are not required to be collected. Bus routes are already established and the current timetable will be provided. Suppliers can put forward proposed routes, bus stops, number of vehicles. Consideration should be given to suitable vehicles for route conditions and access limitations (narrow lanes, bridges etc.). Suppliers can quote for a single service, multiple services or the whole service. Buses must be under 15 years old and be fitted with seatbelts.
