Queenswood School is pleased to be the first UK school to adopt the SchoolBusNotes transport management platform. This is a system that, while very detailed behind the scenes, has a simple interface for the use of parents to enable them to make changes to their regularly booked trips.

The app also allows parents to see both the approach of the school vehicle to their home and the path of the vehicle after their daughter has been collected.

The app also can be set to send text alerts when the vehicle is approaching a pupil’s home to enable them to be ready for the vehicle’s arrival. This helps alleviate delays in the trip and hopefully will shorten trip times by a few minutes.

We have been working with SchoolBusNotes for some time while we tested the platform and are pleased that its implementation – shortly after the start of this term – has been so well received.
