Your Question?
There is a question in my module that asks:
There are 22 PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE children that you are picking up in a bus for after school Care,
HOW MANY EDUCATORS DO YOU NEED?

What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
I've looked everywhere for adult/child ratios but can only find them on preschool and below age - I found on a government website that they don't yet have a ratio for school age children?

The ratio for school aged children is 1:15 (for before and after school care). So, you can probably use this to answer your question.
