Ive just realised that come September I am going to have to pay costs to make sure DD can complete her chosen elective subjects.
She has choosen Music, which I will have to pay £75 per term for piano lessons and Drama, which includes at least 4 visits to the theatre each year.
So my estimation is £450 in music tuition and £200 in theatre visits over two years.
Other subjects included
History £260 trip to France/belgium
Geography ££ Field trips
The school did say that they would subsidise any child with the cost of music lessons if their parents could not afford it.
But it doesnt seem fair that children should have to worry if their parents can afford the aditional costs involved when choosing what subjects they wish to take.
