Terms & Conditions of School Services 2026-2027

  1. Section 1 – Pass Purchase & Refunds
    1. A seat shall be deemed confirmed only upon receipt of full payment through the SHUTTLEID platform. Such payment may be affected either by way of a single lump-sum transaction or through the successful conclusion of a Direct Debit agreement.
    2. In the event a student does not use a Service, whether out of choice or restrictions imposed (e.g. COVID-19, NHS Test and Trace or the Schools), we will not offer any refund.
    3. Customers must not purchase a pass unless the student has a confirmed place at the desired school. If the pass is purchased and subsequently not required because the student did not gain a place, no refund will be provided.
    4. In circumstances where there is any reasonable possibility that a bus pass will not be required—such as, but not limited to, a change of residence, a change of school, or any other material change in circumstances—the Customer is strongly advised not to proceed with the purchase. For the avoidance of doubt, no refunds shall be issued under any circumstances once a pass has been purchased. The Customer acknowledges that unnecessary purchases may result in the forfeiture of the entire cost of the annual pass and may also restrict availability for other eligible students.
    5. All passes are sold on a first come first served basis. We do not “hold” or reserve seats so do not request this.
    6. Ridleys Coaches reserves the right to refuse purchase.
  2. Section 2 – Terms of behaviour
    1. All riders should be at their designated stops 5 minutes prior to the departure time. If you wish to amend which stop you use, please contact [email protected] and we will assist you with this.
    2. All students must have a valid bus pass and be ready to show this to the driver prior to boarding.
    3. The travelling student must be named on the pass. Any customer found to be sharing, swapping, or trading their pass will have the pass revoked.
    4. Students must stay seated and use the seatbelts provided throughout the journey. This is required by law; we will not accept any liability for injuries that occur due to non-use.
    5. Each of our services are separate – your pass will only be valid for the service that has been purchased; we do not accommodate cross service passes.
    6. Passengers must always be polite and courteous to the driver and other passengers.
    7. All luggage carried whilst using the Services should adhere to safety guidance, be stowed correctly, and not prevent seats being used.
    8. No litter should be left behind.
    9. CCTV is in operation during our services and can be used as evidence for any unacceptable behaviour or damage(s) caused. Any damage caused by passengers can and will be billed to the account holder. In cases of consistent or extensive damage this could result in pass suspension or revocation.
      • Bullying of any kind will not be tolerated. CCTV can be viewed along with notifying the relevant schools and parents/guardians. Passes can be suspended or revoked upon conclusion of these investigations. Please do not request to see any footage as we are unable to share this due to GDPR restrictions.
  3. Section 3 – Service
    1. Whilst we take great effort to minimise delays, we will hold no liability for any delays that may occur due to circumstances that are beyond our control. Although we provide a timetable guide for the return service, please note that this is indicative only and may be influenced by external factors.
    2. You are purchasing a closed-door home to school service only and any additional features that you may have access to are complimentary.
    3. Ridleys Coaches maintain their vehicles in accordance with DVSA requirements. While every effort is made to ensure vehicles are efficient and reliable, should a breakdown occur, Ridleys will seek to replace the vehicle as quickly as possible. No journey shall be refunded in the event of a breakdown.
    4. We reserve the right to transfer students from one service to another with sufficient notice.
    5. We reserve the right to transfer students from one designated stop to another within the purchased route, within reason and sufficient notice.
    6. In the event of adverse weather conditions, if a decision is made, on safety grounds, to cancel our services, our decision is final, and no refunds will be issued on this basis. We will inform our passengers via SHUTTLEID and social media.
    7. The routes will run in accordance with the academic calendar of the Stratford/Alcester Grammar schools (e.g. AGS, SGGS, KES). In the event where inset days dictate that it is more environmentally responsible to operate an amended timetable, Ridleys Coaches reserves the right to adjust services accordingly. Notice of any changes will be communicated via SHUTTLEID and account emails. No refunds will be issued because of these adjustments.
  4. Section 4 – Lost Property
    1. No liability will be held for lost property.
