Games, Fixtures and Trips

Weekly Requirements

Many schools have ongoing transport needs – regular times each week when they need to move pupils from one site to another, and back again. This can be a huge time and cost burden for any school.

StudentSafe work with schools to identify opportunities for improvement. Having understood your in-day transportation needs, we review factors such as vehicle allocation and scheduling, to ensure your service is fully optimised.

We then use our extensive network of operators to efficiently deliver your service. We conduct a rigorous process to thoroughly vet every transport provider, to ensure all compliance and regulatory requirements are met.

As a StudentSafe school, you benefit from the support of our Live Service Delivery Team. They provide live updates about vehicle status and location, to enable your school-day to run smoothly.

In some cases, combining home-to-school transportation with daily games requirements can significantly increase efficiency. This was the situation we found with one of our groups of schools, where we are projected to save them in excess of £1 million over a three-year period. You can read more about their experience in their case study.

Ad Hoc Requirements

Whilst some transport requirements occur every week, others are less frequent or one-off. Whether it be sporting fixtures, school trips or residentials, work to plan this ad hoc travel can be hugely time consuming, as well as costly.

At StudentSafe, we make this process quick and easy. We are a one-stop-shop to procure the very best price for your ad hoc transport needs, whilst ensuring all compliance and safeguarding measures are met.

Simply tell us what transport you need and when. We will then put together a plan to deliver on your needs. Where relevant, we will also look to combine in-day transport with your home-to-school services, to deliver maximum efficiency for minimum investment.

Schools who use our in-day services benefit from:

• Reduced workload – we go out to operators and present you with the strongest options, then manage all communications
• Reduced costs – we use our experience and strong network to secure competitive prices
• Quicker quotes – our relationships mean we can get accurate quotes quickly
• Guaranteed compliance – we ensure all drivers and vehicles are fully compliant
• No last-minute issues – we re-confirm all details ahead of your booking, and communicate with the operator on the day
