Why can students board or disembark at different locations eg after school care?
Payments to transport operators are based on travel from the student’s home to school and not to or from other places such as after school care or a grandparent’s place. The Scheme does not cater for multiple destinations with the exception of children whose parents have dual custody. Expansion of the scheme to allow for students to board or disembark at different locations would significantly add to the cost and complexity of the Scheme.
