Bicycle leasing for teaching staff

BICYCLE LEASING TAILORED TO YOUR SCHOOL

GREAT NEWS! From 2025, teaching staff can also enjoy bicycle leasing. Starting this year, teachers can use their end-of-year bonus to lease a bicycle.

Discover the benefits and learn how your school community can get started quickly. And because we understand that every school is different, our bike leasing formula is fully adaptable to meet your specific needs.


The strengths of bicycle leasing for teaching staff

Here are four key advantages:

  1. Budget-neutral for educational institutions: school boards can offer bicycle leasing at no additional cost, provided it is optimised through end-of-year bonuses within legal frameworks.
  2. A boost for the mental and physical health of teachers: cycling to work enhances health and well-being.
  3. Sustainable policy: by adopting bicycle leasing, schools actively contribute to a more sustainable mobility strategy.
  4. Enhanced compensation for employees: teachers benefit from attractive advantages, including tax incentives, when leasing a bicycle.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ON BICYCLE LEASING FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

  • No, bike leasing has minimal impact on your pension. This is because your pension is calculated based on your gross salary at the end of your career.

  • At the end of the lease, you have three options: return the bike, lease a new bike or purchase the bike at its residual value. Cyclobility will inform you well in advance about your options so you can make an informed decision.

  • Yes! Teaching staff can include all legally permitted accessories in their lease package alongside the bicycle. This includes accessories attached to the bike, such as panniers, locks, or a GPS, but also safety gear, including helmets, can be added to the package.

  • Once registered with AZO and after finalizing a cooperation agreement, the bicycle leasing can get started quickly. The process can often be completed within a few weeks, depending on internal approvals and staff selections.

  • If an employee leaves, there are options to terminate the lease early. This can be taking over the bicycle or by paying a cancellation fee.

    At Cyclobility, we keep this cost as low as possible. We charge 7% of the catalogue value and €0 during the final quarter of the lease period.

  • Yes! Your lease bike can be used for both commuting and private purposes, with no additional restrictions.

  • Personeelsleden die werken in scholen, CLB’s, pedagogische begeleidingsdiensten, scholengemeenschappen, leersteuncentra, onderwijsinternaten of scholengroepen, en die een eindejaarstoelage krijgen van AGODI of AHOVOKS, kunnen gebruikmaken van fietsleasing.

  • Onderwijsinstellingen die fietsleasing kunnen aanbieden aan personeelsleden zijn onder andere: basisscholen, secundaire scholen, deeltijds kunstonderwijs, volwassenenonderwijs, centra voor basiseducatie, CLB’s, pedagogische begeleidingsdiensten, internaten, leersteuncentra, hogescholen en universiteiten.

  • Het flexbudget in het Vlaamse onderwijs is een brutobedrag van de eindejaarstoelage dat personeelsleden vanaf 1 januari 2025 kunnen inzetten voor fietsleasing. Dit bedrag wordt rechtstreeks gebruikt, waardoor belasting- en sociale bijdragen vermeden worden. Zo ontstaat een fiscaal voordelige manier om een leasefiets te verkrijgen.

  • 1. Intentieverklaring indienen:

    Personeelsleden die willen meedoen met fietsleasing, moeten vóór de start van de opbouw van hun eindejaarstoelage aan hun schoolbestuur laten weten dat ze willen deelnemen. Ze geven ook aan hoeveel van hun brutotoelage ze als flexbudget willen gebruiken.

    2. Fiets kiezen en lease afsluiten:
    Het schoolbestuur sluit een overeenkomst met een fietsleasingmaatschappij zoals Cyclobility. Het personeelslid kiest een fiets uit het ruime aanbod. De kost van de lease wordt betaald met het flexbudget.

    3. Fiets gebruiken voor woon-werkverkeer:
    De leasefiets moet regelmatig gebruikt worden om (een deel van) het traject tussen thuis en werk af te leggen. Er is geen minimumafstand die met de fiets moet worden gereden.

    4. Afrekening op het einde van het jaar:
    Aan het einde van het jaar wordt de eindejaarstoelage berekend. AGODI of AHOVOKS trekt de leasekost van het flexbudget af.
