DS10 due to change to comprehensive sept 2012. He has ASD and we truly hope he gets a place at a suitable school about half an hour away. He will be elligible for a taxi. DH is a SAHD and is concerned that the return of the taxi from comprehesive, when school closes at 3, will mean he is at the primary school collecting DD who will be 8 and yr 4 in sept 2012.
Would it be unreasonable for DD to miss 15 mins at end of each day so he can be at home to meet taxi? What will this do from an educational point of view?
There is an option to pay for an after school club @ £30 a week, possibly ask after school club to let DD stay for 1 hr instead of 2.5hrs.
The other concern is that if she is at the after school club, her own homework will have to be done late evening eg 6.30 when she's knackered (and this school sends home a lot of homework in yr2 alone).
Just to confirm, DS is at the primary school in a special unit and they know our family.
