Home to school transport is a critical part of the SEND system, enabling children and young people to access education safely and consistently. LIIA works with London partners to improve transport models, manage cost pressures and enhance the experience for children and families.
This work is delivered through the London SEND Transport Network and includes best practice development on route optimisation, LATCO models, joint funding approaches and integration with the wider SEND Commissioning Plan.
