DS is at playschool 2 mornings a week which is fine at the moment becuase he's only 2 and i think thats enough for him. My mum currently drives us as we live in the middle of nowhere and there are no schools or playschools in walking distance from us.
When he is 3 his playschool have offered him a full time place as it's goverment funded i would like him to go full time i think he will be old enough then and he really loves playschool and has lots of friends that go there. The only problem is getting there as my mum can't drive us everyday nad there are no buses running at that time, i cannot afford a taxi at all as it is £18 one way to the playschool.
I figure i am going to have exactly the same problem when he starts primary school (which i know is a while off yet) but it's law that he gets an education and goes to school but how am i going to get him there? I don't drive and DP is at work at that time in the morning, we can only afford one car so even if i leart to drive it wouldn't work as DP's commuting between his 2 jobs clashes with the time DS would need to be at school.
Is there such a thing as a goverment travel grant i could get to fund a taxi or something similar?

Is there such thing as a 'travel grant' for getting to school?
