DS1 (7) went on a trip yesterday, with 3 other pupils.
A letter came home on Monday asking for permission to take them off site and if we wanted, to provide a car seat (they were going in a teachers car to another school).
I sent the form back and took his booster seat in.
He told me last night that he was on it on way there, but not on return journey, as they went in another teachers car.
I've asked in the office this morning about it. I'm more mindful about the fact that I had provided one that hadn't been used. But I also said that I thought it was law that children under 12 or 135cm had to have some sort of booster seat?
Has anyone else experienced similar? They have said they will look into it and come back to me.
Whose 'at fault' here if they are stopped by the police, or worse, an accident? The school or the parents? (Not that that is my issue with it, but I am thinking it all through).
Thanks
