Free Bus Travel
Redcar & Cleveland College provide all our full-time students aged 16-18 with a FREE Arriva bus pass. Students can enjoy the benefit of free travel 24/7 during term time including weekends. In addition to this students can use the bus pass Monday-Friday during college holidays.
The areas covered by the pass include Redcar, East Cleveland, Stockton-On-Tees, Middlesbrough and Whitby. Students living outside of these areas will be provided with an enhanced bus pass covering their home location area as well as the Teesside and East Cleveland region.
Passes are issued in-line with enrolment criteria and remain the property of the College throughout your time at Redcar & Cleveland College.
For students who are over the age of 19 who are struggling to afford their transport to college, we may be able to support you with a bus pass or a travel allowance. This funding is means tested and students are encouraged to apply at the beginning of the academic year as the allocation is limited.
