Please can you help with developing a school bus app for rural areas (poss all ) If you have Children of school age that use school transport then this effects you . At present here in Northern Ireland and across the UK (prob other countries too 😟) there is no way of checking easily if children are using school transport that day or once aboard to prove attendance before departure . Once a child is off school property they are no longer the schools responsibility. If busses aren’t on school property then we have a loophole that no one is addressing at present . I have already contacted my local school and the transportation company employed but as expected little feedback , I had the idea of kids designing it as a nationwide competition but this seems to have fell on deaf ears . I could go the parent forum route and apply pressure but each new term has new kids exposed to this overlooked problem with possible nasty ramifications. I have no doubt if presented with a ready made app the response would be completely different. This problem was brought to my attention when on first day of school term 3 children ( one of them mine 🤪😂) missed their bus home . It probably happens all the time , everywhere . It’s too easy for kid’s, exited with new friends or surroundings to wander off and be embarrassed or scared to seek help . I come cap in hand looking help with an idea for an app . If anyone could donate time and brainpower for free to help develop an app for school busses 😜 . They have little or zero way other than roll call when in school to know if children are using school transport , have used it that day , and if they are using it again to get home . I was hoping a programmer or more on here would be interested in helping develop an app that parent /child/bus driver and school could use to communicate if a student will be on the bus today or not . If they are at afterschools etc . Parents could inform instantly if change of circumstances, as could child (maybe with an area to add explanation of change of circumstance etc) Photo of child poss 🤔 so bus drivers can check off as students board. Or some way Blu tooth connection can enable no need for head count as drivers phone pings once all aboard . If it could be cross platform so as any child could have access that would be icing on the cake . If anyone thinks they can help please get in touch .
Developing a School bus app . Poss competition?
This long text, without a single line break is so hard to read that I could not get past the third line.
So, what is your precise question ?
I’m sorry Claude31 , I may come cap in hand (if you had bothered to read my request) but your lack of respect is quite frankly staggering ! . I may lack punctuation but why should that stop you reading on ? Is your time that precious that you can’t afford a bit of cordiality or respect in dealing with a complete stranger ? I’m asking if Apple can develop an app that keeps kids safe when using school transport . It would also help ease stress at the start of terms with exact numbers and pick up points . Forgive my lack of patients as well as punctuation but I’m quite frankly at a loss as to people’s general attitude as of late . Many people are having a tough time , myself and my family included . I’m trying to bring a bit of positivity and peace of mind to parents . If you can help you would have my undying gratitude (and life time supply of my mixes 🎶) and that of poss every parent in the UK .
