RESEARCH PROJECT ON "SCHOOL BUS TRAVEL" NEARLY COMPLETED
FORSCHUNGSPROJEKT "SCHULBUSFAHREN" VOR DEM ABSCHLUSS
This paper presents the results of a research project on "school bus travel" which was initiated at the institute for primary school teachers at the University of Bamberg at the beginning of the current year. This demonstrates that school bus travel is by no means as problem-free for the primary school children involved as is often assumed. The negative effects include physical and mental strain, a shortening in the leisure time available to the child each day which should not be underestimated, and additional moments of danger in traffic, all factors which form a significant part of the price which children must pay for the journey to school.
