To help you in your search for cheap school mini bus insurance, we have included some frequently asked questions about insuring school minibuses.

Our school is planning on taking a school party abroad in our minibus. Can we be covered?

Most minibus insurance policies have a green card included which allows travel within EU member countries for a maximum of 90 days at a time, enjoying the same level of cover as in the UK.

What types of vehicles can be insured under the minibus insurance policy?

We can insure:

• Minibuses (9-17 seats)
• MPV's (6-8 seats)
• Cars (2-5 seats)
• Vans (up to 3.5 tonnes, long vehicle based transit style)

In addition, if you have more than five school minibuses we can arrange a policy to cover fleet/multiple arrangements (5 or more vehicles).

Not only this, but we can also provide quotes for Coaches (18 or more seats).

What happens if the school minibus breaks down with a school party on board? Can Breakdown assistance be included in the minibus insurance policy?

We understand that at the time of an incident, traditional breakdown cover does not normally extend to a large number of passengers, such as pupils in a school party. Most minibus insurance policies can include breakdown assistance or roadside recovery as standard. This means that your school party is not left stranded on the side of a motorway or left waiting late at night after a minibus breakdown.

What are the main insurance considerations I should take into account before driving the school minibus?

Firstly, check that your vehicle is insured and that you are listed on the insurance policy - never assume that you are listed. In addition if an older vehicle has been replaced with a new one make sure this change has been logged with your minibus insurer. Make sure you hold the appropriate entitlement to drive this category of vehicle and that you have experience of driving this type of vehicle. Many teachers' unions suggest school staff take special minibus driver training. Click for further information on minibus driver training schemes.
