Parents and pupils at Island schools are being urged to plan ahead for Thursday's bus strike.
Replacement buses will be laid-on to take pupils home at the end of the school day, as happened during the last walkout by drivers before Christmas.
Some students have exams on Thursday while others will be taking part in sports events away from their school.
Head teacher of QEII High School Sue Moore says people should make sure they know what will be running and what won't:
