I'm a regular who has name changed for this post. Basically DH and I have 3 DC under the age of 7. We have always rented but have now saved enough for a deposit, rent is crippling us at over £1000PM. We've found a house which is within our budget (they are few and far between where we live!) and have put an offer in.
There is a school literally opposite the house which we hoped our DC could go to but I spoke to them today and they are full & so is every other school in the area (there are about 5).... I spoke to the local authority I they said they have space at a school which is 2 miles away.
We have one car which DH uses for work and cannot afford to run another one, but also cannot do an 8 mile trip on foot everyday. DS (4) has bad asthma and the 2 mile walk to school is along main roads.
I'm really upset and don't know what to do, should I appeal?
