Description of the project
The project involves the purchase of modern, safe school buses to ensure timely and comfortable transportation of students to schools, especially in rural areas and remote settlements. Value: Increasing the safety of children during trips to educational institutions, reducing travel time and improving access to education. Causes of occurrence: Lack of school transport, remoteness of some schools and the need to increase the level of safety and comfort of students. Expected results: Increasing the coverage of students with transportation, especially from remote areas. Ensuring safe and comfortable transportation for schoolchildren. Increasing the efficiency of organizing the educational process.
The purpose of the project
Main goal:
Improving the equality of wealth distribution
Description of the purpose of the project and ways to achieve it
Improving the quality of services
Ensuring inclusion and equal opportunities
Meeting growing demand
Problems and solutions resulting from project implementation
Currently, there are 4 buses, which is not enough to cover the needs of all schools, especially in remote areas. The lack of additional transport limits students' access to education, increases travel time, and reduces transportation safety. The purchase of 4 more buses will completely close this gap, ensuring efficient transportation of all students.
