Regular and one-off secondary-school transport with clear schedules, pickup details and safeguarding-led coordination.

Safeguarding, handover and school-day planning

School transport is planned around the child or young person’s real timetable, pickup, destination and handover requirements. Regular journeys can be recorded separately from one-off school-day travel.

For children and young people, the booking should record who is travelling, the agreed pickup and handover arrangements, the school timetable and any SEND or practical assistance information. Relevant driver documentation, including DBS evidence where required for the work, must be verified before allocation.

What you can expect

  • Safeguarding-led journey planning
  • Parent or guardian and authorised handover details
  • Regular or one-off school-day journeys
  • SEND and practical assistance information where relevant
  • DBS evidence verified for school work where required

Affordable, clear pricing

Pricing is kept clear and affordable, with the quotation matched to the route, journey time, selected vehicle and any practical support requirements recorded at booking. The same calculation rules are used consistently for equivalent journey details.

Where a booking confirmation states that the fare is fixed, it applies to the confirmed route and stated conditions. Material changes to route, stops, timing or requirements can require a revised quotation.

Choose the right vehicle and journey details

Select the vehicle around the passenger count, luggage and access needs recorded in the request. Standard saloon, executive, group and accessible options depend on availability at the required time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I arrange a regular school run?

Yes. Regular transport can be planned for selected weekdays, morning journeys, afternoon journeys or both, subject to confirmation of the schedule and safeguarding arrangements.

Are DBS checks used for school transport drivers?

SwiftLane records and verifies relevant driver documentation for school work. Where DBS evidence is required for an assignment, it must be verified before that work is allocated.

Can I book only morning drop-off or afternoon pickup?

Yes. The requested direction and schedule can be recorded separately so the quotation reflects the actual journeys required.

Does SwiftLane decide free school transport eligibility?

No. Local-authority eligibility is decided by the relevant authority. SwiftLane can provide private pre-booked transport independently of that decision.
