Our Pass
Our Pass website
The Our Pass application portal has opened earlier this year and we need your help reaching young people across Greater Manchester - so that they and their families can save up to £500 a year in bus travel costs.
Our Pass opened for applications 2 months early on the 3 May 2021. It’s a membership scheme that gives school leavers a free bus pass, plus all sorts of special offers, discounts and experiences - designed to support young people at a crucial moment in their lives.
We need the help of schools and colleges so that we can reach as many young people as possible. We don’t want any eligible school leaver or college student to miss out. Can you help spread the word, and support your students as they apply?
Everything teachers, schools and colleges need to know is available to download from our website.
Our Pass Digital Info pack contains:
- A briefing note for teachers, so that they know what’s what
- A letter with information that can be relayed to parents/guardians (in colour or in black and white)
- A flyer that can be emailed to students and parents (in colour or in black and white)
- Ready to use social media posts, which schools and colleges can post on their Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts
- A promotional video about the Our Pass schemes

Get ready for your GCSEs with GC Education & Skills!
Even though exam season may seem far away, there’s never been a better time to get prepared. In fact, starting to think about exams sooner rather than later can make all the difference when it comes to revision, and can have a positive effect on performance and grades. Not only will you have more time to study but you’ll be able to adopt a more balanced approach to revision, set clear goals and plan out study sessions in advance.
