He cannot use public transport on his own, partly because of physical difficulties in dealing with lots of steps and walking and partly because of intellectual difficulties in knowing which tubes/buses to take, the routes at either end and what to do in the event of a diversion. At present he either has transport to school, is driven by his parents or taken places in a taxi.
