Maps & Directions
The school, and sixth form college, is situated to the south east of the City of Cambridge and within easy reach of all major transport routes to Cambridge.
BUS
Netherhall School and Sixth Form College is served by the Stagecoach C1 bus route which stops directly outside the College and runs every 10 minutes from the City centre and Railway Station. Students will qualify for a concessionary bus pass if they live three miles or more away from the College, provided that it is the ‘nearest appropriate centre’. Passes are issued by Cambridgeshire LEA, and students can obtain the relevant application forms before they join us by downloading them from the following website:
www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/education/transport
Some students will be eligible for free passes. All passes have to be renewed termly. Stagecoach Cambus have an agreement with Education Transport and can issue a GoldRider ticket; this enables students to travel at any time. Bus passes from other providers require an additional charge to extend the use of the bus pass throughout the day. To view timetables please go to www.stagecoachbus.com/timetables.aspx
