4.5c Transport in private cars
Transporting young people in private cars requires careful consideration. Where this occurs, there should be recorded procedures.
As a minimum, recorded procedures must address the following:
• Seeking evidence that the vehicle is roadworthy. e.g. MOT certificate where relevant.
• Seeking evidence that the driver holds an appropriate and valid licence.
• Seeking evidence that there is a valid insurance policy covering the intended use. This requires that employees have “business use” cover.
• Ensuring that there is explicit parental consent to transport pupils in private cars and by specified persons.
• Ensuring that drivers properly understand their duty of care in this situation.
