Located close to Guildford city centre, Tormead is fortunate to be served by a variety of transportation facilities.

Many girls use the train to commute to school, as the nearest station – Guildford London Road – is only a short walk from school. There are numerous connecting trains from the main Guildford Station, both during the rush hour and after school.

A number of public buses stop close to school: Routes 25, 36, 37, 463 and 479.

There is a drop-off facility in front of the Senior School for parents who wish to drive their daughter to school. Staff are on duty every morning to help Prep School girls cross the street to the Prep site.

Both the Prep and Senior School sites offer bike racks to store bicycles safely for those girls wishing to cycle to school.

The Tormead Coach Service offers pupils and parents a convenient, safe, reliable and environmentally friendly means of transport to and from school. Booking is easy via an app, which is available online via the booking website.

Coaches arrive at school before 8.15am each morning (traffic dependent) and depart at 4.12pm each afternoon.

The Coach Service is open to pupils from Year 2 and above.  For those students in the Prep School, in the mornings, a member of staff will collect the students from Senior School Reception and escort them across the road, and they will escort them back across in the afternoon, making sure they’ve all got on the right route and seatbelts are plugged in.

Coach Passes

There are a range of pass options available, enabling girls to take differing numbers of journeys each week. Demand for places can be high, and we endeavour to accommodate all requests. However, where spaces are limited, priority will be given to those requiring full-time tickets and those travelling the furthest. Our terms and conditions require a termly commitment from parents with a full term’s notice in writing required to cancel a coach seat.
