NLCS is perfectly placed near three tube stations – Canons Park, Stanmore, and Edgware – making the journey to school easy and reliable for girls from all over London. Plus, our extensive coach network runs far and wide.
To support their independence and safety, we run an extensive coach and minibus network, used by over 600 students every day. Our free Tube Station Shuttle buses connect directly from these stations, ensuring a smooth, trusted ride to and from school.
Of course, many girls choose to walk, cycle, or take the tube, train, and local buses—because we encourage every student to find the travel option that suits her best, with confidence and care. Please use our route mapper below to find your best option.

At NLCS, encouraging sustainable and active travel is a key priority. Reducing the number of cars arriving at school helps improve air quality and ease congestion on local roads, creating a healthier environment for our whole community.
Our efforts to promote safe, responsible, and eco-friendly journeys have been recognised with the Gold STARS accreditation from the London Borough of Harrow and Transport for London—a testament to the real impact of our work.
To support families, we launched the HomeRun App, which helps Senior and Junior parents connect and coordinate journeys to and from school. This initiative is already making a positive difference by encouraging shared travel and reducing car use.
For more details on these services, please see below. If you have any questions, the Operations Team is here to help—contact them on 020 8951 6490 or travellingtoschool@nlcs.org.uk.
The HomeRun App provides an innovative, secure, digital platform that allows parents to search for both Junior and Senior NLCS families living nearby (by distance from your home location, rather than by address which remain private), to coordinate journeys and to share information. It will enable you to:
- See who lives nearby – this may provide you with opportunities to share car travel/lifts to save time and the expense of driving to school.
- Contact other parents securely and share personal contact information on a needs only basis.
- Receive information promptly about any changes to the arrival times of girls returning from trips and school events.
- Ensure safer travel for your daughters to use buses or trains by sharing travel arrangements.
- Receive up to date information on travel and environment initiatives.
The app also provides the School with anonymised journey information that we can use to promote new environmentally sustainable travel initiatives and will support us in developing our travel plans with Harrow Council and TfL.
If you have any further questions please contact the Operations Team via travellingtoschool@nlcs.org.uk or by calling 020 8951 6490.
