Now here is a new piece of legislation that I do believe is long overdue –
” Teachers will no longer be able to drive school minibuses on a car driving licence, according to new guidance from the Department for Infrastructure. Teachers must now have a full D1 minibus driving licence and driver certificate of professional competence. The new guidance is contained in a letter from the department to the Education Authority (EA).”
Please if you are a Chair of Governors or a Headteacher please note this new advice……
