No, a student is one who studies.

So a 5 year old in primary school is a student then?


I wouldn't really say that they study, so no.

Yeah, and being at school does tend to prevent one from getting a job
that pays well, especially if you put the necessary time and effort
into your studies to actually benefit from them.

So what?


So, obviously, they can't afford full price fares, and so in the
interests of encouraging them to continue their education, they can get
cheaper travel.
