  What's the rationale for some schools having a bus service and others not? In Australia, I'm not aware of any metropolitan state school having a bus service, so it sounds bizarre that buses would dictate starting times. Some private schools might have small buses. Otherwise, public and private students would use public transport, ride, walk or get dropped off by parents.

    In Netherland it's also only the special needs schools that pick up students in buses (because they're very specialised and kids can come from a very large area and might not be sufficiently able to travel on their own). But most kids just use their bike. But I gather bikes are not a thing in many other countries.
