Travelling to school

By bus

The Cowplain School is easily accessible by bus with both First Bus and Stagecoach offering local routes.

In addition, we have arranged a bus service to and from Denmead and Hambledon. The bus route starts in Hambledon at 7.35am and continues to The Green at Denmead at 7.43am, then picks up at The Falcon at 7.48am and arrives at The Cowplain School at 7.59am.

You can buy an annual bus pass in advance or purchase a daily single or return fare on the bus; please see Bus Pass Information, Bus Pass Order Form and Bus Pass Bank Standing Order Form.

Two services operate after school to Denmead and Hambledon, at 3.07pm and 4.02pm. The morning service and the 3.07pm service is only available to The Cowplain School students. The 4.02pm bus is also available to students of Oaklands School and Havant and South Downs College.

If you live more than 3 miles from school, 2.5 miles if you are receipt of certain benefits, please let us know as you may be eligible for a free bus pass.


By car

When dropping off or collecting students, parents are asked to observe the double-yellow lines by the school entrance and not to block the driveways to adjacent homes.

No movement of traffic is allowed on the school site between 3pm and 3.10pm to allow our students to exit the site on foot safely.

By bicycle

Students are encouraged to cycle to school.
