Pupils Travelling to School

A ‘Park and Stride’ approach, where children and young people walk to school for at least some of the way, will be adopted for those from Auchinleck, Cumnock and Netherthird, to promote a healthier lifestyle, reduce congestion, minimise pollution and respect the householders who live close to the Campus.

Parents and carers who choose to drive children and young people are asked to use a parking place or safe drop-off point approximately five to ten minutes walking distance from the Campus.

Buses will continue to transport our young people from Mauchline, Catrine, Sorn, Drongan, Muirkirk, Ochiltree, Lugar, Logan and New Cumnock and will park at the bus bays at Cumnock Academy on Ayr Road. On leaving the buses, young people should cross the bridge towards the Campus.

Visitors to the School

In order to avoid congestion, we ask that all visits to the campus use the car park on the Ayr Road (old Cumnock Academy Site) unless this is not practical, in which case please contact the school prior to making your journey.
