A total of 450 schools have had their transport assistance forms processed with the number expected to increase this week as the Transport Assistance Scheme kick started yesterday.

Education Minister Filipe Bole said the Ministry delivered coupons to all the nine education districts last week and schools whose forms have been processed are expected to collect their coupons from their District Education Offices.

Bole said the Ministry continues to receive applications from schools, whose enrolment schedule has affected their submission.

He said eligible students from schools in the Northern Division will collect theirs tomorrow.
