Are they not just designating some normal scheduled buses as 'school'
buses? So they'll be like a cancelled service as far as the rest of us are
concerned.

When I was in Nottingham the bus company went out of their way to *not*
schedule any useful public buses on routes to schools. The passengers
were more trouble than they were worth, apparently. So it fell on the
rent-a-wreck brigade to run the dedicated school buses.
