How by presenting a united front at sporting events it is possible to raise your school’s profile, no matter the end result

By encouraging parents and members of the local community to watch and support the sports’ teams, both at home and away, it is possible to strengthen your relations with the public.

Such sporting events offer you the opportunity to showcase the effort and achievements which help to communicate your school values.

Clearly, in the case of sporting events which occur at home, it is fairly easy to communicate these values as the environment in which they were founded is all around.

However, communicating these values at sporting events away from home can be more difficult, and it is therefore important that a united front is formed in order to continue promoting these values.

One way in which this can be achieved is by travelling to the event in a minibus.

The problem with this, however, is that minibuses are expensive, and many school budgets will not allow for a purchase as big as this.

It is for this reason that we offer leasing of minibuses to schools, an arrangement which makes it possible for schools to fund the minibus through a small payment each month.

In some cases, where financial contributions are made by parents and the PTA, it is possible to allocate a part of those payments towards the cost of the minibus – reducing the funds being deducted from the school’s capital account.

In other cases the minibus can be funded through small monthly deductions from various departments’ income. So, if half a dozen departments agree to contribute towards funding the bus and the PTA agrees to put in a monthly amount as well, the funding problem is completely resolved.

Furthermore, when leasing a minibus with Benchmark, you don’t have to worry about taxing or maintaining the vehicle as we have this covered. We ensure that the vehicle is fully operational at all times.

Benchmark Leasing specialises in the supply and maintenance of school minibuses. If you are interested in the benefits of a minibus do call us on 01753 859944 or click here to see what we can offer.
