Who rides
Every rider on a stage, every fare billed
Put a student on a stage of a route for the term and they are billed its fare through the transport service, once.
- One transport place per student per term; a paused place keeps its bill.
- A roster for each route and term, stage by stage, with the parent’s phone, as a PDF for the driver.
- Roll-calls for the students of a route, like any other roll-call.

Trips
Every trip, from the driver’s phone
The driver starts a trip in the School Dynamics app, marks each student on board, arrived or absent, and closes it.
- The direction, the distance and the time, kept with each trip.
- Kept on the phone until it can be sent, where the network drops.
- A driver sees only their own trips; a trip started by mistake is cancelled, never deleted.

Questions
What schools ask us
How are transport fees billed?
Through a transport service: a student put on a stage is billed that stage’s fare for the term, once, and only students who ride are billed.
Can a student ride for part of the term?
A place can be paused; the term’s bill stays, and the bursar can adjust it if the school agrees.
Does the driver need a computer?
No. Drivers run trips from the School Dynamics app on their phone.
Can we print who rides each route?
Yes. A roster per route and term, stage by stage, with each parent’s phone number.
