So I got to the school gate this morning to be told that someone in DD1's class has Covid and that she has to self isolate for 2 weeks- which is fine. However I also have DD2 who goes to the same school and who's class is not in isolation.
Problem is, DD1 has SEN, recognised by school has 1:1c EHCP etc. She can't be left at home whilst I take DD2. I don't have a car, so we have no choice but to use public transport to get to school and back, and it's an hour one way. I can't take DD1 on public transport as she has obviously has to self isolate.
The school however, don't seem to understand. They said about her dad- we are separated and he said he can't do the school run. His furlough literally ends today and he doesn't want to lose his job- which I understand and he has been great doing school runs for me every day whilst he has been off on furlough. I have said I'm happy to do school work at home, not a problem but they are marking DD2's absence as unauthorised and keep calling me. I'm not sure what to do.
