There is a framework for a parenting plan on the CAFCASS website. You could complete this with your proposal to start discussions. Have you done the course which can be found at the top of the page?
Thanks @bill337 and @champagne.
Have done parenting plan and have done MIAM, and have appropriate form to do CAO. She's agreed to do mediation but she thinks it's appropriate to be away 15 days a month to suit what she wants and the other 15 days will be the days she has them, leaving me to change mine and girls schedule to suit her job. I also have some slight welfare concerns and evidence to prove it (sleeping while watching them as an example).
So I'm left with little choice other than going for CAO unfortunately because she won't accept less than 50% custody and she won't change her job - that is best for the children.
What course are you referring to Champagne?
Link wasn't showing during reply but found course link on main page, so will check it out thank you
