I don't know how they are actually used but I doubt it's used the way you think it is. That would be pretty useless. It's mobile WiFi. They probably go park in places that need WiFi. Don't know the range but people can sit on the bus if needed. Not ideal but it's also better than nothing.
That said, the state of public education is terrible and the government seems insistent on making it worse. Some places require some homework to be done online due to remote learning days. Which made sense during the pandemic but don't anymore. Not everyone has internet and stuff like this hurts the ones that don't.
