Plan every road, tick every child with one tap, and let parents know the moment their child is on the bus. Routes, trips, fleet, costs and incidents, all in Somaplus.
The office plans it once. The driver follows it every day. Parents and directors see what happened, as it happens.
Stops, zones, children in order and the time each one is picked.
The driver starts the trip on the teacher app. Parents hear the bus is on its way.
Tap the learner's card on the phone, or press Mark present. Their parent gets an alert.
Every run and every tick on the Trips page, with each tick on a map.
Name the road, add the stops in order and pick the bus. Add every child in one go, set each pick up time, and drag to change the order.
Drivers use the teacher app they already have. Each learner's card taps on the phone, the learner's photo card pops up to confirm it's the right child, and one more tap marks them picked up.
Today's runs first: not started, on the road or finished, with how many children are ticked. Open a run to see each tick, in order, on a map.
Put a learner with unpaid fees on the no pick list "until paid". The driver's list leaves them out. The day the balance is cleared, they're back on the next run, with nobody lifting a finger.
Every bus with its driver, its runs and children, what it cost this term, and two countdowns: when the insurance cover ends and when the next service is due. Anything within thirty days is flagged.
Fuel, repairs, service and insurance in one list. Drivers enter fuel from the teacher app, the office enters the rest. See it per bus, per type, per month and per term.
A flat tyre, a breakdown, a delay. The driver reports it from the teacher app and it lands in the occurrence book with its own number, ready to act on.
For families who live in two places. Pick ups that follow the week the family agreed, Mum's gate on some days and Dad's on others, shown on the driver's list. We're building it now.
