A Co Down mum says her young son is missing his first days at a new primary school due to a transport issue with the Education Authority.
12-year-old Tyler Shields from Ardglass, who has Special Educational Needs, was excited for his first day at his new school earlier this month.
But with no transport secured, a private taxi organised through the Education Authority (EA), it was left to his mum, Jamie Lee Shields, to drive him to and from school for his first few days.
