School Transport Managed by Penwortham Priory Academy
This service is provided by Penwortham Priory Academy via a commercial operator.
Due to the increased charges from the service provider, we have had to review the daily price of providing this service and therefore the price for the academic year 2025-26 will be £4.70 per day/£839 per annum, with the school continuing to subsidise the service.
Please note - no cash payments can be accepted on the Priory-managed buses. Payments are to be made via our online payment facility, SCOPay. Fees can be paid in six half-termly instalments via SCOPay and the first payment should be made by the end of September. SCOPay login details will be issued during the first two weeks after starting at Priory.
If you have an enquiry or wish to use this bus service please email transport@priory.lancs.sch.uk.
