Ok here's my question. My son has autism, he is in a mainstream school and has a blue badge as he will just have a brain meltdown and run off quickly, he will also just throw himself onto the floor, it is unsafe to walk him near roads and a charity has provided him with a disability buggy due to this. He gets high rate mobility and high rate care.
When he got his badge I asked the head about using the disabled bays in the morning (although other parents do who don't have a badge) and he said yes in the morning but not after school as there is a boy in a wheelchair and a girl on crutches and only 2 spaces.
Fair enough I thought and carried on. Recently my son has got worse and the parents in the normal car park double park etc makin it even more dangerous and he almost got run over when my mum collected him the other day do my mum asked if she could use the staff car park as it was unsafe for my son an he has a badge. Head said no again. (this head is known for not particularly liking SN children by all the SN parents at that school)
I'm not sure the laws on this one. Does he have to provide spaces? I know my school would and so would my mums school even if it was just to park in the staff car park (where the 2 disabled spaces are)
Does anyone know? Thanks
