School travel passes
Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to get help with the cost of your child/children travelling between home and school. To qualify, you’ll need to live in Knowsley and attend your nearest school – the statutory walking distance from your home address to the school is 2 miles for children aged under eight, and 3 miles for children aged eight and over. Children should already be entitled to free school meals, or the family are in receipt of the maximum level of working tax credits.
