Back to school and back on board

Back to school and back on board

The start of a new school year is always a busy time - from new uniforms and packed lunches to getting back into the morning routine, there’s plenty for parents and carers to think about. 

But getting prepared for the new school year doesn’t have to stop at buying stationery and checking they have packed their P.E. kit; applying for the right TravelMaster pass in advance can help make those daily journeys easier.

One thing that can be taken off your list? Getting them to and from school.

For children and young people travelling across South Yorkshire, public transport offers a convenient and affordable way to make the journey, and TravelMaster offers a range of ticket options to help young people get where they need to be.

Helping young people travel with confidence

For many young people, travelling independently to school is an important step. Public transport can help them build confidence, while giving parents and carers peace of mind that their child has a straightforward way to get to school and back home again.

By applying for a Zoom travel pass from Travel South Yorkshire, eligible children and young people can access a GetAbout or GetAbout+ travel pass and receive unlimited travel in South Yorkshire, with one-day, seven-day or 28-day options available. 

When your child has their GetAbout or GetAbout+ travel pass from TravelMaster downloaded and ready to use, there’s no need to worry about finding the right fare each day. They can simply hop on board and get on with the journey, without worrying about the operator of the service, making those daily journeys easier.
