It is entirely unsustainable and the hard truth is parents are going to have to take the responsibility for getting their children to and from school.

I mean, the cost is absolutely insane and isn’t sustainable at all.
But I refuse to believe it costs 2 billion to send less than 2 million children to school.
It’s just brazen corruption and massive overspending. Just get someone to look through it all and root out the people who are utterly taking the piss.

Hidden cost of needing both parents to work. Maybe it’s about still school hours adapted like so many other countries?

For context we spend 2.4 billion rebuilding schools each year to make them safe. We are giving taxi drivers almost the same amount as we are trying to spend just keeping the schools upright.

It is the parents responsibility and should not be for everyone else to foot the bill because your “SEND” child gets a bit overwhelmed.

It’s unfortunately a combination of abuse of the system by the companies overcharging and making massive profits from the tax payers expense, abuse by the parents getting their children diagnosed with disabilities on purpose because it lets them get additional benefits and abuse by the councils themselves, who are likely getting back handlers from giving the lucrative essentially unlimited cost transport contracts to people they know and not attempting to atleast question why some of these fees are so excessive.
