How Minibuses Can Aid Childrens’ Learning

24 September 2018

​As teachers and pupils alike are returning to their first term of the school year, it’s important to keep awareness levels high and maintain standards which are crucial for children’s developments in education. School minibuses are becoming a vital asset for schools to increase the learning capabilities of its students. As you may remember from your early school days, learning from a text book isn’t always a stimulating exercise.

It’s becoming more apparent that children nowadays are more receptive to learning through active learning. Play is the best way of offering them hands-on experience, as young children learn a huge amount through their senses. Acquiring a school minibus for exciting trips away from the classroom is a perfect way of inspiring young people to learn to their full capabilities.

An adventure on a minibus for children is an exciting experience. Allowing pupils to sit next to their favourite peers can be a useful tool for building strong relationships, which will reap benefits in the classroom. By interacting with other pupils, these students learn social skills that stay with them in their whole life. Sharing, setting boundaries and problem-solving all come from socialising and interacting, therefore giving children a chance to build these important skills is invaluable.

To support these theories, the National Union of Teachers (NUT) also believes that these opportunities to connect and work outside of the classroom can broaden their horizons, enrich their overall learning experience and allows pupils to discover what they really love learning.

We can all look back on our school days and agree that the most memorable moments were the ones where we could enjoy our time with other pupils who made school that little bit more special. We want to make that happen for all children, to give every child the chance to achieve their goals.
