Covid Schools Emergency home to school transport Plan.

Due to the rise of covid cases and the emergence of the Omicron variant, we are drawing up emergency plans to cover our school routes in case staff test positive for Covid-19. We are already facing severe driver shortages within our industry and as staff members must self-isolate for 10 days this can be very disruptive to an already stretched situation. We haven’t had to cancel routes yet, but it could be only a matter of time. So, for this reason, we have produced a plan B from all our depots, for certain schools. The schools have been notified and the links are below for the routes that could be affected should we need to put plan B into action. As you can imgine this is a logistical nightmare as we wont really know if Plan B is needed until the last minute however, if Plan B is needed we will endevour to get all students into school as close to their start time as possible. We apologise for this inconvenience, and we will only use these measures when necessary.

BUS PASS TICKET INFORMATION!

156Shuttle ID Passes

Please ensure you have your QR-Code ready for boarding.

All ESSEX COUNTY COUNCIL STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER, STATING THAT YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN CAN TRAVEL ON THEIR SPECIFIC ROUTE. Please do not throw this letter away as it is a temporary pass and proof of travel. Essex county passes will be issued later in the month, once all data has been received.

TRANSPORT UPDATE.

Getting Children to School: We will be working with the Local Education Authority and schools to ensure we follow the guidance available to secure the safety of drivers and students when they travel on school transport.

Using our home to school transport: The guidance for ‘Dedicated School Transport’ does not require social distancing. This means that we will largely be running our normal services and vehicle capacity. We will still be having assigned areas for year groups as we found this worked well last year. All students are to sit in their assigned groups indicated by stickers displayed around the bus.

Downstairs - Year 7/8/9 (year 9 can be a split group)

Upstairs - Year 9/10 /11/12/13

As far as is logistically possible we will group children on the vehicles to reflect their year groups in school, however on some journeys this may not be possible.

Boarding a Service: It’s important that you arrive at your bus stop 5 minutes before departure. Please wait and queue in an organized manner. When boarding the vehicle from your designated stop please board one passenger at a time and have your bus pass ready to show the driver. Please don’t push and keep to your own space.

Disembarking a service: Double Decker -Students from the bottom deck will depart first followed by the top deck starting front to back. Please don’t push, be patient and respectful to all students.

Single Decker Coach/Bus - Please depart the vehicle front to back. Please don’t push, be patient and respectful to all students.

Behaviour: Responsible behaviour when travelling on school buses is of paramount importance. It is imperative that all students observe the conduct expectations set out by Flagfinders, particularly regarding the seating areas assigned to specific year groups.

Incidents on school transport will be dealt with in liaison with the Local Education Authority, schools and Flagfinders and could include in a verbal reprimand, a letter to parents, a fixed term ban from school transport or a permanent ban from school transport.

We ask for your help in:

• Staying in your seats

• Respect your space and those around you

• Do not distract the driver and respect their personal space

• Try to keep touch points down to a minimum.

• Keep your bus pass safe and do not pass it or anything else to another pupil. Try to stay in control of your belongings and space.

• No food or drink to be consumed on the vehicles

Face coverings: The government has removed the requirement to wear face coverings in law on school transport but recommends that they are worn in enclosed and crowded spaces where you may come into contact with people you don’t normally meet. We encourage pupils to wear a face covering if aged 11 or over unless medically exempt when travelling to and from school.

Ventilation: Good ventilation is an important component to reduce the spread of Covid-19 in confined spaces. Well ventilated spaces help prevent the build-up of the virus and reduce the risk of transmission. We encourage passengers to keep some windows open to help improve the natural ventilation on the vehicles.

Hand Sanitizer: Hand Sanitizer Stations are available on our vehicles, but we would request that children have their own hand sanitizer and use it before boarding and on disembarking.

Disinfecting/Sanitizing the vehicles: In accordance with current guidelines all our vehicles will be disinfected/sanitized using daily enhanced cleaning regimes with particular focus on touch points.

Food and drink on vehicles: We would request that food and drink are not consumed on our vehicles at any time.

When an individual develops COVID-19 symptoms or has a positive test

Pupils should follow public health advice on when to self-isolate and what to do. They should not come into school if they have symptoms, have had a positive test result or other reasons requiring them to stay at home due to the risk of them passing on COVID-19.

For everyone with symptoms, they should avoid using public transport or Home to school Transport and, wherever possible, be collected by a member of their family or household.

We thank you for taking the time to read this. Please can you reiterate to you child the importance of following these guidelines as it will protect us all going forward.

If you have any queries please call the main office on 01376 320501

Dear Parents/Students

We would like to inform you that we at Flagfinders have taken many precautions to provide you with safe and secure transport from home to School.

You are probably aware that the guidance for ‘Dedicated School Transport’ does not require social distancing in place.

As far as logistically possible we have tried to group children on vehicles to reflect the year group in school.

Unfortunately, with Rickstones we have had to make an additional adjustment.

Therefore year 7 Students will be divided into two bubbles.

Group one on Bus 1 (Red Marking on the Screen) – 10 Students from year 7

Group Two on Bus 2 (Green Marking on the screen) – 20 students from year 7

Year 7 Students will be in the Yellow Zone on both Vehicles.

Additionally those students travelling on Bus 1 (Red) will have their pass altered to show this.

We hope to have a member of staff available to offer guidance on the initial outbound journeys from Silver End.

We thank you for your cooperation.

• Students must be at their designated pick up at least five minutes prior to departure.
• Please ensure you are in possession of your valid pass.
• Remain seated during your journey with the seat belt in place when fitted.
• Flagfinders do not tolerate any unsociable behaviour and have the right to refuse passage.

Please follow us on Twitter/Facebook by clicking on the link above for up to date route information due to adverse weather, traffic delays or School Closures.
We operate a Texting service for updates on School bus transport due to adverse weather, traffic delays or School Closures. If you would like to be added to this texting service, please contact the Flagfinders Office on 01376 320501.
