My DS says some of his year group in year 7 have 2 hours of travel each way daily which must be very challenging for them.
I wish such a long commute to the school was in the remit of NSPCC. :roll: :roll:
Quite. That's 4 hours travel plus 8 hours at school, which leaves 12 hours for after-school activities (probably none possible in such cases), homework, dinner and sleep. Oh, I forgot to account for breakfast time, but maybe they just have packed sandwiches they eat on the train in the morning. What 'joyful' lives must those children have....
It felt like I hit rock bottom; suddenly, there was knocking from beneath... (anon.)
