Our students enjoy discovering new interests and making friends for life, nurtured and encouraged within a kind and down-to-earth community. They leave us with the character, confidence and the resourcefulness to make their mark in the world, equipped with the knowledge and real-world skills to give them the edge.
Putney pupils are spirited, vibrant and learn to think for themselves, but they also know how to have fun, and most importantly, to really enjoy their time at school.
Putney High School have partnered with Vectare to offer school coach services for both Junior and Senior school pupils to and from school.
See below for our Transport and Travel Guide, here you will be able to find information on prices, timetables and more.
Bookings can also be made via the link under the same section.

Transport and Travel Guide for 2020-2021
routes, prices and booking information
We currently have three routes available;
One travelling from Gloucester Road via the King’s Road and across Putney Bridge.
One travelling from Wimbledon via Southfields.
One travelling from Isleworth via Barnes, East Sheen and Mortlake.
All indicative timings are published in the Transport & Travel Guide and on the dedicated transport booking and journey finding website.
All coach drivers have been enhanced DBS checked, and regularly undergo periodic CPC training to ensure that they are of the highest standard.
Your daughter is welcome to take a friend home with her.
Please visit the dedicated transport site and make a booking for a single trip to ensure that she is on the register.
Capacity is limited on all routes and therefore it is advised that where parents have a regular requirement to use the service, they make a booking for the whole term or year.
Payment is taken on a termly basis, by credit or debit card, regardless of your booking option.
Where the requirement is ad-hoc, some parents may decide they want piece of mind that their daughter has a guaranteed space and therefore book a space for the term, whereas others just book available seats on an ad-hoc basis.
The price per trip varies based on the distance travelled, route and the number of journeys taken.
Similar to a rail season ticket, by booking a regular journey, the price per day is cheaper than booking on an ad-hoc basis.
Please use the Transport & Travel Guide provided on this page for further details.
Payment is accepted by any form of major credit or debit card.
All payments are handled by our card processing provider, Stripe, who remit the funds directly to the school.
This means that your daughter doesn’t need to carry cash or a card whilst travelling. Once payment has been made, your child’s name will automatically be added to the drivers’ register.
We provide our school bus service in partnership with Vectare, who manage school buses across the GDST group.
Vectare can be contacted at putneyhigh@vectare.co.uk or on 0115 777 3189.
They can be contacted between 06:00-22:00 seven days a week, including whilst the coaches are running.
Real time updates will be provided to the contact details that were provided at the time of booking.
The driver cannot be contacted whilst they are driving, but Vectare’s operations team are available to assist if the bus is running more than 10 minutes late and you have not received a notification.
They can be contacted at putneyhigh@vectare.co.uk or on 0115 777 3189.
If your daughter is not using the service on a given day, please email Vectare at putneyhigh@vectare.co.uk so they can let the driver know.
They will automatically be able to remove your daughter’s name from the register. In the ‘My Account’ section of the transport booking website, it is also possible to mark your daughter as not travelling.
