3. Click on Students or Routes to check missing information that your operators haven’t entered. If your operators have questions about completing the missing information, you can redirect them to this guide: How to Complete the MOE HQ School Bus Exercise (Operators)

Verifying Students Who Cannot Be Found in School Cockpit

Sometimes, you may come across students whose identities need verification on the student page. This happens when the system cannot automatically match a student’s name with a record in School Cockpit. It can occur for various reasons, such as having two students with the exact same name.

1. Click on the students page on the top navigation bar

2. Hover your mouse over the blue ! button 

3. Proceed to search for the student in the School Cockpit.

4. In the pop up that appears, you can search for the student and select the student by clicking on the radio button next to the desired student.

Note: 

• If you can’t find a matching student, it might be because the bus operator entered the name incorrectly. Please check with them to identify the correct student.

• Should any data need changes, you can liaise and message your bus operator directly before clicking Next on the data submission page.

Submitting Data to HQ and Concluding the Submission Exercise

Note the requirements needed before you can press next:

• There must be at least 1 bus route and student(s) included into the route.

• Student, Routes, and Company profile fields must be fully completed.

• Operator must click NOTIFY SCHOOL button on their page to indicate done. All bus operators (for schools with multiple operators) have also clicked NOTIFY SCHOOL button.

• Click data exercise button at the top navigation bar

• Click NEXT once all your operators have submitted their data. 

You’ll arrive at a page where you can either fill in or confirm the required FAS statuses of the students if you’ve already entered them on the previous page.

1. Update all the FAS statuses of the students if you have not done so. 

2. Click on the Submit button and another Submit button in the subsequent pop-up to complete the submission.

Note: 

• You should receive a confirmation message that your data has been submitted to MOE HQ as of the last submitted date and time.

Upon submission, you can also click the RESUBMIT button to resubmit current data to MOE if there are changes made by the bus operators.
