Getting to and from Exeter Cat
The School runs a comprehensive transport service covering the areas of: Axminster, Copplestone, Drumbridges, Exmouth, Ivybridge, Moretonhamsptead, Okehampton, Ottery St Mary, Tiverton, Torquay / Newton Abbot.
Since September, a new bus service for ECS Prep School families (Year 3 and above) has been running, making journeys simpler and more convenient. Partnering with Exeter School and The Maynard, this wider transport network opens up more routes and opportunities.
Morning drop‑off and afternoon pick‑up points are at Victoria Park Road, with an Exeter Cathedral School minibus connecting pupils to and from school.
Through the Vectare portal families can:
Explore available routes and stops
View seat availability in real time
Book and pay online for regular or ad hoc journeys
Track your child’s journey live and receive notifications when they board the bus
Manage everything on the go via the Vectare app
Safety and Standards
All of our routes are operated using our own in‑house drivers and minibuses, or partner operators. Drivers are DBS checked and regularly undertake appropriate training to ensure the safety of the pupils travelling.
If you are new to the service, we encourage you to explore the portal and consider joining.
