SCHOOL RUNS FROM SW3

School runs from SW3 a plan for your child

Arrange a recurring school journey with the days, timings and handover agreed around your child. Contact our 24-hour office for a tailored quote based on your arrangement.

FROM SW3 TO SCHOOL

A school journey that fits your week

From SW3, arrange morning or afternoon journeys, one direction, selected weekdays or term-time travel. We can also discuss one-off journeys, occasional cover, clubs, exams and changed finish times. A parent can accompany the child, continue onward or be dropped off first when agreed.

Tell us the destination school and entrance as well as the actual SW3 collection address; the postcode does not identify a school route. Near Knightsbridge Underground Station on Sloane St, the station is a useful reference, not permission to stop. We can agree a practical, lawful meeting point.

BEFORE THE FIRST RUN

Agree your child's travel plan

Before the first run, we agree the journey, authorised handover and support with the person arranging it and, where relevant, the school or commissioner. KB Cars is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Our Privacy Notice explains how we handle your booking information.

Agree the individual plan

Share the collection address, school entrance, days and times, authorised booker and contacts, and any return plan. Tell us about communication, mobility, seating, restraint and assistance needs, whether a parent or passenger assistant accompanies the child, and what should happen if the usual plan changes.

Set authorised handover

Name the adults or organisation authorised to receive your child, backup contacts and how changes are verified. The driver checks the child and recipient under the plan; app access, tracking or a PIN alone does not authorise a different recipient.

Manage changes with the office

The authorised booker or contact can request an absence or change by phone or app; prior-day notice is encouraged and agreed fees may apply. Receipt of a request is not acceptance: the office confirms the actual accepted change and informs those affected. If an adult is late or a code fails, the child remains supervised while the office follows the agreed escalation plan.

SUPPORT THAT FITS

Choose the help your child needs

Tell us what helps your child travel comfortably, including communication, sensory preferences, boarding, seating, restraint and handover. We agree the support needed while driving, at each stop and if the usual arrangement changes. A passenger assistant can help with boarding, communication, supervision and handover while the driver concentrates on driving.

You may provide a passenger assistant or ask KB to source one. We agree roles and responsibilities; where KB sources the assistant, relevant checks, competence and briefing must fit the child and journey. Medication, personal care, weight-bearing transfers and physical intervention need separately suitable arrangements.

Request the same driver when continuity matters. If a genuine problem requires a replacement, the office arranges a suitable approved driver and informs you. Drivers assigned to our school service complete KB's school-transport induction and office approval, with a briefing on the agreed journey and handover plan.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions about an SW3 school run

Practical answers about schedules, handover and support.

Can you arrange selected weekdays or occasional cover?

Yes. Morning or afternoon runs, one direction, selected weekdays, term-time travel, occasional cover, clubs, exams and changed finish times can all be discussed. Tell the office what repeats and what is occasional so the schedule is clear.

How is handover handled if someone else collects?

The receiving adult or organisation must be authorised under the child's travel plan. Name backup contacts and agree how a change will be verified; the driver checks the child and recipient under that plan. A PIN, app invitation or tracking access alone does not authorise someone new.

Can I provide a passenger assistant?

Yes. You can provide an assistant or ask KB to source one. Agree the assistant's responsibilities for the individual journey, including communication, boarding, supervision and handover. Medication, personal care, weight-bearing transfers and specialist intervention need separately suitable competence and arrangements.

Is Knightsbridge Underground Station a school pickup point?

The station is a local reference, not a named school route or an authorised stopping point. If you live nearby, give the actual home address and entrance. Knightsbridge Underground Station is on Sloane St, London SW3 1ED; the office can coordinate a practical lawful meeting point and confirm the destination school's entrance with you.

Can I arrange a child seat for the school run?

Yes. You can bring your own suitable seat or ask KB to supply one when you book, subject to availability and suitability. Give the office your child's age, relevant height, weight and restraint needs so the arrangement and any charge can be agreed before travel.

YOUR ARRANGEMENTS

A tailored quote for your arrangement

We arrange school transport for families and welcome school or council commission enquiries. Our office will discuss the schedule, collection, handover and support before giving a tailored quote for the agreed arrangement.

An enquiry or quote alone does not confirm a booking. KB confirms an accepted booking by SMS and/or email. You can contact the office without installing an app.
