Things brokers commonly ask about
Every school uses its minibus differently. To match you with the right broker, it helps to have these details to hand when they get in touch:
- Number of seats – 8, 9, 12, 16 or 17 seater vehicles.
- Who drives – teachers, support staff, volunteers or parents, and the licence categories they hold.
- How the minibus is used – school runs, sports fixtures, educational trips or travel abroad.
- Permits – whether you operate under a Section 19 permit or similar arrangement.
- Accessibility – wheelchair lifts, ramps or other adaptations.
- Where it is kept – overnight parking and security arrangements.
- How many vehicles – if you run several minibuses, brokers can also discuss minibus fleet insurance.
Types of cover brokers can discuss
Specialist brokers can explain the options available to education settings, which may include:
- Comprehensive, third party fire and theft, or third party only cover
- Any-driver or named-driver policies
- Passenger liability
- Breakdown and recovery
- Cover for specialist equipment and adaptations
- European travel for school trips abroad
Compare Quotes does not give advice or recommend a particular policy. Your broker will explain what is available so your school can make its own decision.
