A furious mum has spoken after ongoing bus strikes has made it so her children cannot get to school during their GCSE exams.
Sarah Clarke, 43, has two children who are currently taking exams, a daughter who is doing her GCSEs and an 18-year-old son who is undergoing his exams at college. The Yorkshire family, who live in Cleckheaton, have only one way of getting to school without driving, the bus.
However, a dispute between Arriva and its drivers means that no Arriva buses are currently running in the area. Sarah is unable to drive due to a medical condition ad her key worker partner has to leave the house before the kids start school and college. Because of this, the family's only option is to pay for a month's worth of taxis so the kids don't miss their exams.
