This section is for teachers, administrators and procurement staff who are accountable for student safety and need evidence, not reassurance. It sets out what schools should ask for and how those requirements are confirmed for a Fox Bus booking, so your due diligence rests on documents rather than description.
The name of the accredited legal entity and the accreditation or licence number for the jurisdiction the service runs in, which you can verify with the issuing transport authority. Provided on request; shown here only when confirmed.
Confirmation that the assigned driver holds the correct licence class, passenger-transport driver authority, and a current Working With Children Check for the school work. Confirmed for the assigned driver on request.
Confirmation of the insurance cover that applies to the service. We provide this on request and do not state a policy number or sum insured we have not verified for your booking.
Written confirmation of whether the assigned vehicle is fitted with seat belts, since fitment varies. Tell us at enquiry if belts are required so we confirm a suitable vehicle rather than assume.
A single point of contact for the booking who owns coordination and any incident response, reachable on 1300 161 646.
Seat-belt fitment varies by vehicle and is not universal across bus and coach types. If your school requires seat belts, state it at enquiry and we will confirm in writing whether the assigned vehicle meets that requirement; we will not imply every vehicle is belted when it is not.
A current Working With Children Check applies to drivers doing school work. We treat this as a requirement to be met and confirmed for the assigned driver on request, rather than a blanket claim that every driver already holds one for every type of work. If a partner operator supplies the driver, that operator is responsible for the clearance and we confirm it applies to your work.
Ask for the accredited entity name and accreditation number for your market, written confirmation of the assigned driver's licence class, passenger-transport authority and current Working With Children Check, confirmation of insurance cover, and seat-belt fitment if required. We provide what applies on request so your file holds evidence, not assurances.
A current Working With Children Check is a requirement for school work, and we confirm it is in place for the assigned driver on request. We state it as a requirement to be met and verified rather than asserting every driver already holds one regardless of the work they do.
It depends on the vehicle, because fitment varies. If seat belts are required, tell us at enquiry and we will confirm in writing whether the assigned vehicle is belted, rather than assume. We will not imply every vehicle has belts when that is not the case.
Fox Bus remains the party your school booked with and your point of contact and complaint handler. The partner operator holds the accreditation, driver authority and vehicle maintenance obligations, and we confirm those apply to your work on request.
The team can provide current evidence on request before you book.
