Two ways schools use Trayvar
Whether the buses are yours or your operator's.
Your school runs its own buses
Your transport team uses Trayvar directly: one school, its campuses, its bell times and its children. The platform plans the routes, runs them through the driver app, keeps parents informed and reports on every term. The full stage-by-stage view is on the product page.
Your school contracts an operator
When your operator runs on Trayvar, your parents receive the same WhatsApp updates, and the operator can send you a service report for your school: your routes, your children, on-time performance and the exceptions worth your attention. See how operators use Trayvar.
What schools get
Four things the spreadsheet cannot give you.
Bell times that match the timetable
Kindergarten finishes at 12:30. Primary at 14:30. Secondary at 15:30. Wednesday closes early.
Each child's times are held by day of the week, and afternoon runs split by dismissal time, so every class goes home on the right run.
Every pickup on record
Each child carries one record: school, class, home location and times. Each pickup and drop-off is recorded with its time and place.
Children who were scheduled but not confirmed aboard are counted as unconfirmed, never assumed to be on the bus.
Parents stop calling
Adaeze's parent gets a WhatsApp message when she is picked up at 06:18, when the bus is close to school and when she is dropped off.
No app to install. Only parents who have agreed receive messages, and every message is logged.
Reports the board can read
On-time performance, pickups against schedule, absences, missed pickups and unconfirmed children, for any period you choose.
Printed as a designed PDF. A school that contracts an operator receives its own service report, under the operator's name.
A school day with Trayvar
From the first pickup to the day on record.
Drivers start from their phones
Each driver opens the Trayvar driver app with the day's route loaded: 11 hubs and 47 minutes of driving. It works offline, so a weak signal does not stop the run.
First pickup, parent notified
Adaeze taps her card at Hub Lekki-A. GPS records the place. Her parent receives a WhatsApp message: “Adaeze picked up at 06:18. ETA Greenwood: 07:24.”
School arrival
The bus reaches the school gate and each child's drop-off is recorded. The route finished within ten minutes of its target time, so it is scored on time.
Kindergarten goes home
While primary and secondary continue their day, the kindergarten run leaves: one vehicle, 14 children, all home before 13:45.
Primary, then secondary
Two vehicles take the primary run. The secondary run leaves at 15:30. By 16:30 every child is home and every drop-off is recorded.
The day on record
The transport coordinator sees which routes ran on time, any child not confirmed aboard and any absences. At the end of the term, the same records make the report.
Honest fit
Trayvar is built for scheduled, term-time transport.
The same children, on known routes, against the school's bell times. That is the transport day the platform is designed for, whether the school runs three buses or thirty.
Schools looking for after-school club pickups or on-demand rides for children should look elsewhere. If your transport day does not look like the one above, we will be the first to tell you.
If your school runs its own buses, we should talk.
A 30-minute conversation. We will show the platform against your real operation, your bell times and your children. If the fit is not there, we will say so.
