Just that, really.
My ds wants to ride his bike, but it's far too small, we can't afford a new one and his road awareness isn't yet good enough.
I was thinking that he could scoot instead, but I don't want him to be unusual if others don't.

Mine has done on occasion. I think hes the only one who does. He does have a speedy adult scooter which helps the image a bit.

It's mainly bike or walk around here. Local school has just banned electric scooters!

I haven’t seen Y7s scoot. Can he walk?

Not around here.

I’ve worked in secondary schools for 20 years and never seen a child scoot to school. We do have one teacher who does… Hmm
