A DIRECT bus service to RSA Academy Arrow Vale has been organised for parents wanting to tour the school.
Since its open evening, the academy received requests for tours from parents of pupils at Walkwood and Ridgeway Middle Schools, who expressed an interest in their children joining Arrow Vale.
As a result, the school decided to operate a direct bus service from areas close to both Ridgeway and Walkwood that will run directly to the academy and drop them back again.
This is to support families who put Arrow Vale as their first choice of school when places are allocated after the October 31 deadline.
In comparison to public transport, the service will reduce the need for two buses and will cut down on travelling times and costs.
The school will continue to book tours next week for any parent or family considering Arrow Vale.
