Prepare the route
Create a route with its vehicle, driver, attendant where required, available capacity and ordered stops. Each stop can include a planned time and map coordinates. The transport coordinator keeps this information current when a route changes or a vehicle is in maintenance. Families need a reliable published plan, not an unexplained vehicle reference.
Allocate seats carefully
Assign a student to a route, stop and seat for a defined date range. Capacity and overlapping seat allocations are checked before saving. Changes should reflect the actual transport arrangement, including the start and end of temporary service. Staff can use a transport service request to track a question or exception with an owner and next action.
Share only what is relevant
Parents can see the route linked to their child’s active allocation. Internal driver account identifiers are excluded from the family view. Timetabled stops are plans, not live vehicle positions. Any GPS tracking service, transport safety procedure or emergency communication must be configured and verified separately before it is promised to families.
