Every day, parents entrust their children’s safety to school transport services
Designed and managed by school transport professionals, the ISTAS Standard addresses the absence of a unified operational framework for school transport. It offers a structured, adaptable approach that ensures safety, efficiency, and alignment with a school’s vision and values.
While independent schools often navigate various compliance schemes, such as those linked to charitable status, these do not address the specific challenges of transport management. ISTAS bridges this gap, giving school leaders a robust framework to build upon, ensuring their transport services operate to the highest standards.
Achieving the ISTAS Standard serves as a powerful marketing tool. It demonstrates a school’s commitment to safety, efficiency, and care, offering a unique selling point that reassures parents and attracts new families. By elevating transport services, schools can strengthen their reputation and stand out in a competitive sector.
