When I was training kids, mainstream schools received around £8k per student per year. Depending on what 'problems' they came with, the special schools received between £80k - £110k per student and they only attended 4 days a week and no more than 4 hours a day. They all had one to one helpers, some of the right 'handfuls' had two to one. Big business. They were picked up and dropped off everywhere by cab. Costs the LA's a fùcking fortune.
Standing speaking to a mate at half 8 in morning said he was just waiting for the taxi to pick his kids up to take them to school .
I says oh what school do they go to he points along street to the one 200 yards away that one but im not allowed to take them they have to get a taxi in .
Another mate is a taxi driver one of his runs is about 35 quid each way everyday for one kid to a school ten mile away the kids mum is the head teacher of the school . She will occasionally phone mate and say its ok i will take him in or home mate still gets paid .
As for the 200 yard run mate says they have to bid on all the trips and because a lot of the drivers think the 200 yard one would only be a few quid nobody bid on it so the guys clicked and stuck 10 and 15 quid bids in and won them as no one else bided on them
Anybody with a child with special needs appreciates any specialist help.

Analysis of data compiled by the BBC, released today, shows that county authorities are spending an average of £9,800 per year on each child receiving SEND school transport."

It's not easy to find an average figure for each special school pupil, but it seems to be around £16,000. Still less than the average private school!
EDIT: actually more like just over £20K on average.

this bit is the Billy Bullshoite: "he points along street to the one 200 yards away that one but im not allowed to take them they have to get a taxi in"
suggest you search the rules on taking a kid into one of those special units before you spout your usual shyte
its here if you fancy reading the actual rules rather the the ones from Narnia that you are currently spouting...

Can you explain exactly what you mean by "wokey"?
Never asked him ?
But will see what he says tomorrow ?
He says numerous colleagues of his are looking to get out ? Had enough of it ? Also says they have a massive recruitment problem ?
Weighing up his options but is seriously looking going to the states and serving in there armed forces
As according to him they are valued better in the states ? No
Equipment shortage or make do and mend culture
