I should have mentioned it was a special needs school.

we lived in one house where the neighbours dogs barked and growled at my dog every time he went out in the yard.  in the end he stayed in the house except when we took him for long walks twice a day.  even now he doesn't go out much except on a sunny winter morning as he doesn't like the heat much.  i think it would depend on the size of the apartment, a caring owner  and the availability space where the dog could be walked.

disabled children are included in many mainstream schools now......

I do believe there are also doggy minding care, in some places...doggy day care.

Dog Daycare benefits both the dog and you the owner, the benefit for the owner is that while your doing human stuff your furry child is having a great time doing dog stuff.

I know, but this girl was severely disabled intellectually and physically.:-(. There are a few special needs schools in our wider area. 

Paying $600p.w. for a 2 brm apartment in Sydney CBD, may not have much $$ left to send you doggy to day care.
