Is there any support for the transportation costs between my child’s home and the school?

Do you have a child aged 12-16?

The districts and independent cities, if necessary, provide transport to public and private schools or reimburse the travel expenses. The conditions for entitlement to pupils’ transport or pupils travel expenses reimbursement, the type and extent of transportation or reimbursement, as well as the application and billing procedure, are determined by the by-laws of counties and cities. The application for pupils transportation or pupils travel reimbursement must be submitted to the school administration office of the district or independent city where the pupil lives (https://mbjs.brandenburg.de/bildung/weitere-themen/schuelerbefoerderung.html).

 

If your child is entitled to benefits from the education and participation package, the costs for pupils transport between the place of residence and the school will be covered (http://www.masgf.brandenburg.de/cms/detail.php/bb1.c.256245.de).
