Bureaucratic Nonsense

I have a friend who has a son with muscular dystrophy who will be moving to a six form to (with luck) do his 'A' levels.

Now at the moment he gets council assistance to get him from his home to school - via specially adapted taxis and the council pick up the tab.

So what will happen when he goes and does his 'A' levels?

If the school he is at now has a 6th form then the current arrangement will continue; if he goes elsewhere like the local 6th form college - even though it is council run - then the payments will stop.

One guess whether there is a 6th form at his school ...........
