What weighs the same as a blue whale’s tongue, and who can drive it?

A school minibus can be driven by any member of staff who holds a standard car driving licence. This is providing that the gross weight of the vehicle is below 3500kg (equivalent, as it happens, to the weight of a blue whale’s tongue).

As a result, many teachers are able to offer more learning outside the classroom opportunities to their pupils as they don’t need to rely on the appointed school minibus driver/s with a minibus license who might be unavailable at the time.

What’s more, taking smaller groups of pupils outside the classroom to undertake their learning can make a huge impact not only on their academic progress, as the learning is made more personal to them, but also on their personal development.

If you are unsure which model of school minibuses can be driven on a car driving licence, Benchmark Leasing have a range of minibuses that are available for leasing and that fit the required specifications.

A popular minibus among schools to whom we lease is a 12 seater Ford Transit Minibus (TDCi Trend) which comes with air conditioning, metallic paint (if required), heated front screen, electric mirrors, front and rear parking sensors, and fog lamps.

Our leasing package for this vehicle is a 2 year agreement of payments of just £299 + VAT per month. This particular leasing package includes full maintenance, including replacement tyres, servicing, Road Tax, MOTs, and 6 Monthly Safety Inspections.

This special offer is only available while stocks last.
