Ballinamore Councillor Caillian Ellis is a school bus driver with over 25 years' experience.
He believes that pupils will adhere to any guidance given, but with social distancing, the numbers on buses will be significantly reduced
Speaking on the Joe Finnegan Show, he admitted that there has been almost no consultation with people on the front line ahead of the return to classrooms in August :
The ASTI is warning its teachers won’t return to school if a safe plan isn't put in place.
The Government's 300 million euro plan will be launched later to reopen schools by the end of August.
Primary school students are set to be sectioned off into pods of between four and six children.
Strict cleaning regimes, investment in school buildings and more substitute teachers are also set to be included.
