National minimum standards September 2022
The latest update to the National Minimum Standards for Boarding Schools comes in to force on 5th September 2022 and in paragraph 11.2 it states The school should make arrangements, with parents and carers, which are clear about who is responsible for the collection and transport of boarders (including arrangements for international pupils) at the start and end of the school term and where there is any temporary absence from school.

Countdown to launch…
i-gtm is now fully developed and we start onboarding schools in March 2022. After twelve months of intensive development, i-gtm is now built - with both scale and simplicity at its core. The complexity of tying together an infinite array of travel possibilities and presenting it in an easily navigable, step by step format to non-technical users, has been a really enjoyable challenge. We believe that our clients will be delighted and we approach live date with great excitement.
v1.0 in testing
After months of development, i-gtm version 1.0 is in final testing before launch with our key clients. The software is set to streamline the way these schools gather crucial travel information, especially from the key overseas student body, allowing not only greater efficiencies in running chaperoned school transport, but vital record-keeping.
