    The money is only going to come from the school, impacting your daughter.

    Do you really need to sue the school?

    Do you think the minibus wasn't insured? What a stupid statement.

    So why would a school not allow other parents to park in their car park but would allow disabled people? Cars and children don't mix. Park as far away from school as you can is the answer.

    It was a car park not the playground - did you miss that bit or just not understand it?

    Did the independant bus company register the accident in their records?

    Oh forgive me. I hadn't realised the children got on the bus in the playground.;)

    Not stupid at all - the first post made it appear that the OP wanted to sue the school. You are aware that many schools own their own buses?

    Which still have to be insured, as do the premises TBH.

    Understand completely. I'll ask my school where the 'bus park' is :rotfl:

    Possibly because there is not room for all of the parents to park there but due to a there only being a small percentage of disabled drivers amongst them, allowing them to park doesn't cause gridlock.
    Park as far away from school as you can is the answer.
    Maybe due to disabilities, the school carpark is as far away as some can manage to walk.
