To achieve a SAFEMark award, school must sign up to a set of agreed standards, such as using school bus monitors, while Metro provides a range of free teaching resources and posters.

Schools participating in SAFEMark enjoy benefits such as:

• Improved behaviour on school buses and train journeys
• Reduction in staff time spent reacting to problems
• Productive partnerships with local bus companies
• Raised pupil awareness of sustainable transport.
