I have NC for this as the situation is very outing! But I would like opinions as DH thinks I'm opening a can of worms!
We have had issues with DS2's SN transport this year. Previously he always had his transport to/from grandparents to ensure he had the care he needs as we both work. This year the CC decided this should have never happened and can not happen. (his grandparents live 1.4 mile away and on route to his FE...) We have done the 2 appeals and apparently "the request for an alternative address due to work commitments as an exceptional circumstance can not be considered as many parents have similar issues and will be expected to make their own arrangements".
We are doing the 'sad face' thing for the local paper, contacted the MP , informed SS that we need care BUT I'm thinking that this is actual discrimination as a 'NT' child can access childminders, care clubs etc whilst quite often this is not the case for a SEND child, especially one who is now classed as an adult - does this not discriminate as NT children can access other forms of care, but this policy means that SEND children must be cared for at home?
