SCORES of children heading to Suffolk schools were today being carried by different buses after the company that provides their transport ceased trading.

It carried about 200 children to and from schools in the Beccles, Leiston, and Halesworth areas.
Alternative arrangements were drawn up overnight and other bus companies were providing transport to and from schools this morning.
