Child maintenance - variations for home schooling

Options

Currently pay child maintenance to my ex for our 2 children, I have 1 child with my new partner and her 2 children that live with us which the amount is based on by CMS.

1 of my partners children is home schooled which is an additional expense for us - could this been used as a variation in the child maintenance I currently pay? He also has suspected autism but we don't have a diagnosis for this yet.

Many thanks in advance
