The money he already gives you should cover everything.The Csa will not take more money from him to pay for this one off event. However if you are on good terms there is no harm in having a chat with him and explaining the situation.
Yes csa covers school trips as well as everything else and no csa don’t do one off payments for this
Omg…the front of some of you women. What he pays you already covers it. If it don’t……then tough…pay for it yourself.
My deadbeat bitch of an ex expects me to have a normal relationship with my daughter……providing I pay for that as well as paying her £300 each month.
As long as it don’t effect her money, I can see my daughter. If it did effect her money, she will not allow me to see her.
My skank ex is your typical csa loving, greedy money grabbing bitch that use my daughter as a cash cow to top up her full time job salary along with her partners full time job salary. I am the ATM machine for their nights out and holidays and everything else they spend my money on but not on my daughter…lol…csa….fucking joke.

Hi, your question has already been answered. The cost of some residential school trips are just ridiculous. I don’t know how they expect people to afford them and you don’t always get that much notice of a trip to be able to pay it off over time.
@Gonk, not all people receive that much maintenance £300 a month for one child, is a lot in my opinion, over and above what she needs if mum is paying half towards her too. When parents are self employed and manipulate earnings or rather be unemployed, then they are not paying any or hardly any maintenance then it’s such a struggle for the one parent who covers all the children’s financial needs to meet the cost of these trips. Fair enough you pay a lot of maintenance and it would be totally unreasonable to ask for you for another penny for trips. I’ve had to borrow money off my parents for an educational trip and pay it back gradually.
@eve32
My point Eva is my ex works full time and so does her partner. I think it’s disgusting that I am forced to hand them 2 £300 each to top up their salaries, there’s no way they spend it on my daughter. I have no say in the matter, that money could be put away each month by her mother, or at least half of it, but no, none of it will benefit her future when she’s grown up, 40 grand + will have been bled out of me and my daughter will see not one penny of it for a car, uni fees, wedding perhaps ?? Morally, my ex does not deserve a penny as far as I’m concerned. I should have that money to spend on my daughter when I see her, at least I know it would be spent on her.The ex and her partner should take care of her everyday needs, NOT me, she don’t live with me and that’s no fault of mine either. The ex decided she didn’t want me, the real father around any more but chose instead to have her live with another bloke and have him play daddy to her.
So get on with it and stop robbing me blind as a ATM machine and using my daughter as the cash cow.

@Gonk,
I agree with you it is a lot of money for one child, and like you say they have a double income so it would of been a great if they could of put some of the maintenance aside each month into savings for your daughter for the future that would of really helped her out in life. This is your situation.
But not everyone moves on and moves a new partner in. I would not have another man in my home around my teenage daughters, it’s there home too and why should they share it with a strange man. My children come first and when they are adults maybe I’ll meet someone but I’m very happy on my own. So no two incomes and my ex evading paying maintenance. I find funding school trips on top of all my bills, and I’ve heard people say I can’t pay maintenance after my bills, council tax, mortgage, gas,electricity, well I have all those bills too and I really struggle.
