Funding
Since the European School itself is not involved and there are no transport subsidies available from other benefactors, these activities must be organized and run on a full cost-recovery basis. Our goal is to offer the seats on the buses at the lowest possible fee.
How are our Fees so Low?
We as the PA are proud that our transport costs are the lowest of all the international schools in Belgium. How do we do this?
We have central pickup points along the route which lower costs. As such we cannot offer home pick-ups. Parents and Guardians must go to these central pick-ups in order to reduce costs.
Paying Fees by Installments
If you need to pay an outstanding installment, you can pay by logging into your account via this link: https://registration.paesmol.eu

- Click on Proceed to Payment.
Capacity
Our goal is to accommodate all bus requests. In cases, where the bus is near full capacity, children who currently use the bus will be given 1st preference for the new school year.
In cases where previous payments were overdue, we reserve the right to only accept registrations after full payment of the yearly fee.
Rights & Privilege
All who avail themselves of this service acknowledge and accept that travelling on these privately contracted buses remains a “PRIVILEGE”, not “AN ACQUIRED RIGHT” even when bus fees have been paid.
The Parents Association is engaged in this activity on your behalf on a volunteer basis and exercises its capacities in good faith with reasonable care and attention (consistent with the Belgian concept of “ goede huisvader ”).
