Fund free bus travel for all post-16 students

Fund free bus travel for all post-16 students — 237 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

We want the Government to fund free bus travel for post-16 students. We want free reliable travel for all post-16 students.

Additional details

The Government has stated it wants to create 350,000 training and work opportunities but students are already disadvantaged if they cannot access a course because of cost of transport. We feel we have no choice but to go to college to enhance our earning potential - we are the future tax payers of Britain. The government has said that no young person should be left behind but we feel that specifically rural students are being left behind.
