On this topic, at least two (likely three) of the local schools have framed the issue in a way that I feel is misleading: "If VAT is added to school fees, schools must, by law, pass this on to parents as VAT is a tax on the consumer and not the business." Should they not be saying that by law the VAT must be paid by the school to the government? There may be schools that cannot contemplate absorbing the cost and need to pass the full 20% on to parents, but that's a different matter. Any thoughts welcome...

Cycling on Green dale for school run - safe or not?
Suggsy replied to Suggsy's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Yeah. Secondary. We'll be using this route as renting for 6 months during building work. I'm not convinced the risk - that has been quite well outlined on this thread, esp in darker months of Oct / Nov / Dec after school - is worth it. Will look at alts Cheers will do - though I guess not every incident will be reported if it's child on child Thanks - I'd heard of similar too, basically someone pushing a cyclist over My wife says same -

Cycling on Green dale for school run - safe or not?

Thanks Malumbu but as per my OP I'm really interested in safety from the POV of muggings rather than if my kid will be safe from other cyclists (!). Bessemer Grange not relevant to my situation, FYI. Ta Thanks Sunbob, that's good to hear -
Wondering if Green dale is safe for kids to cycle? I see a number of commuter cyclists coming up greendale towards Champion Hill but very few children heading down towards the Village. I'd read that muggings were a problem in the past on Green dale and wondering if that's still the case eg when it's darker after school. For anyone who uses it regularly, would it be better to cut through the estate and meet Green dale at the mid point? Insights appreciated, ta.
