Is a process for payment of trips over time going to be an option for parents/carers in the future in order to spread the cost?
The school do have a system on site which will enable parents/carers to do this. However, before this can go live, it needs further development and trials to ensure that it will be successful upon implementation. When the system is operational, information will be communicated with parents/carers.
