I am getting myself very confused but think I know the answer.
I am thinking about registering my daughter as an assistant. I think we will be allowed 8 under 8s, 6 under 5s. At the moment I have a Vauxhall Zafira - although will be changing this, my daughter has Ford Ka.
Realistically, she would only be able to fit 2 in the rear of her car - we would have to search around for slimmer child seats.
Consequently, would it be ok it I transported the other 4 (assuming we were full) in my car. I do have a variation for 4 children on my own, 1 day a week so on that day it would be ok - but I suppose I would have to have an ok from Ofsted to transport 4 alone on the other days?
I think the answer is to look for an 8 seater car - but there aren't that many around and the ones there are seem to have reliability issues.
This is proving to be such a headache - don't think I want to stay in all the time though.
