Doncaster Council paying £12m on transport for SEND pupils

Doncaster Council is paying £11.8m to send children with special educational needs to schools out of the city

It comes after Doncaster's specialist schools have been unable to cope with a "significant rise" in pupils with, according to a council report.The number of young people with special education needs or disabilities is expected to climb further to 8,500 by 2027. A further 169 young people in post-16 education have to travel away from the area for education, with most having social, emotional or mental health needs.

And? So what?

I like how you try to frame it as if the very act of spending was the issue thing and not the fact that there's not enough money for adequate provisions locally and therefore kids have to be driven around. BBC taking lessons from state media in Hungary and Poland again.
