South Otago High School
The Ministry of Education provides a school bus conveyance allowance when there is no school bus available, or an eligible student lives more than 2.4km from the nearest bus route.
It is paid to parents or whānau | families of eligible students to contribute to the cost of getting to school or kura, or the nearest school bus route.
The Ministry of Education pays the conveyance allowance to parents once per term. How much we pay depends on how many children they are taking to school and how far they have to travel. The allowance is paid at a daily rate so the payment will vary depending on how many school days are in the term.
