Late Bus Information

Late buses run on a Tuesday and Thursday each week.   They depart from the College at 5pm.  This service is run to support students who have Period 6 lessons or take part in after school clubs only.

Late Bus Routes

Please be aware that late buses do not routinely stop at drop-off points used by the normal school bus service. Late bus drivers often stop at locations between towns and villages to help students alight closer to their homes. On occasions this is not possible due to the potential risk to students alighting from the bus i.e. getting off at a busy junction, or other road users.  

Route A 
Tongue End, Sticklepath, Ford Cross, Prospect, Whiddon Down, Sandy Park and Chagford.

Route B
Highampton, Hatherleigh, Jacobstowe, Exbourne, Sampford Courtenay and North Tawton.

Route C
​Meldon, Sourton, Dartmoor Inn, Lydford, Bridestowe, Lewdown, Bratton Clovelly and Northlew.

Whilst every effort has been made to include as many towns and villages in our catchment area there are some not covered by any late bus route, these are Folly Gate, Inwardleigh and Halwill. For these areas students have the following options:

• Catch a College late bus to the nearest drop-off point and arrange for parents/carers to collect them from that point
• Catch a public service bus from the centre of Okehampton (this will mean additional travel costs)
• Arrange for parents/carers to collect directly from Okehampton College

*Please Note* The college does not operate the transport system. Devon County Council are responsible and as such all enquiries should be directed to the DCC.  Click HERE to visit their website.
