makes sense. less cars on the road and easier for the teenagers. win win.
the bus prices are an absolute joke lately. how are kids meant to get to schools on the other side of the island if they cant afford the fare? FIX IT.

Living on the island is so expensive as it is. Getting to college shouldn't cost a fortune. Please sort this out.
Agree totally. The cost of living here is way too high for families with kids in education.
