Hello,
Would love some opinions on this please. We were forced down the private route as no school places available. We are still waiting for a place in Year 2.
There is a little girl in my DC's class who has just been allocated a place at our nearest school. We were number one on the waiting list, but somehow the other child has been given a place. They live much further away from the school than us. There are no learning difficulties that I know of, as the little girl was in my DC's class and at a similar level. There is a sibling, but we also have a sibling at the school we are on the waiting list for.
How could this have occurred? Mutual friend has been bragging about how there are 'ways' to get both children into same school. She won't elaborate when pushed about these mysterious 'ways'!
Am I missing a trick here? I want to bring this up with the Council to find out why we were not given the place.
Our LEA criteria is Looked After Children, SEN, Siblings, then distance. Length on waiting list doesn't come into it.
