Bicycle Leasing for Teachers Starting Soon!
Bicycle leasing continues to gain popularity, and thanks to a decision by the Flemish government, educational staff will soon be able to benefit from it as well. The ministerial decree will take effect just before the start of the new school year. This means that teachers will officially be able to lease a bicycle from January 1, 2025, financed through their year-end bonus. B2Bike is pleased that the Flemish government is further advancing sustainable mobility and responding to schools' demand to offer a lease bicycle for their staff.
This decision is fully supported by B2Bike, as it offers educational staff more efficient and cost-effective commuting options, giving teachers and personnel more ways to cover the distance to the school. B2Bike has already built a solid track record in guiding public administrations and businesses towards bicycle solutions and cycling infrastructure. With our years of experience and dedication, B2Bike is eager to assist schools in developing and implementing a customized bicycle plan.
For Whom?
The scheme applies to teachers and educational staff at primary and secondary schools. Academies for part-time art education, boarding schools, student guidance centers, and colleges are also covered by the new scheme.
Depending on the school, it is the educational umbrella organization and/or the school board that decides whether to offer a scheme, on what timeline, and with which leasing partner they will work. B2Bike has already done its homework and is fully prepared to develop customized bicycle solutions for educational institutions! We offer maximum support, providing a strong network of partner bike shops, expert advice, a personal approach, and our handy (digital) tools.
The Scheme for Teachers and Educational Staff:
Teachers and other educational staff will be able to use all or part of their gross year-end bonus to lease a bicycle through the school or educational institution. If you work for multiple school boards and they all offer bicycle leasing, you will need to choose which institution you finalize a lease agreement with. In that case, there will be just one (dream) bike available. Read more about it via this LINK.
