  1. The activity requiring the transportation of students is either school sponsored or approved by the Ministry of Education.
  2. The vehicle to be used is properly licensed and insured. Rate class 001 (Pleasure Use Only) vehicles may be used on not more than six days per month, in total, when driven to or from, or part way to or from, work or school, or for business purposes.听 (The Rate class is shown on the Vehicle Registration and Insurance Form.)

  4. The vehicle must have a school bus designation if the seating capacity is 10 or more people and the driver must have a Class 4 license.
  5. A booster seat secured with a shoulder harness must be used when transporting students who are at least 18kg (40 lbs) until their 9th birthday or they reach 145 cm (4鈥9鈥) tall, whichever comes first. If a shoulder harness is not available students must be secured with a lap belt only (no booster).

  12. Ensure that all parents/guardians are notified if students will be used as volunteer drivers to transport their children, and provide a process whereby parents/guardians can direct the school that their children are not to participate in such transportation.
  13. All drivers must submit a criminal record check and driver鈥檚 abstract to the principal. These record checks are valid for a period of five years.
