Cambridge secondary schools

[m1ntymum]

Hi all, I am new to this, but could really do with some help :0(

I have a Y6 child and am looking to move to Cambridge to live closer to my partner. Unfortunately this decision was made after I had applied for a secondary school place in another LA. I have been advised to accept the place in the current location and then apply for an in-year transfer in April for a school in Cambridge, but in the meantime have to also try to secure a Primary place, at the same time as trying to find work too! Advice would be really gratefully appreciated re: 1) readers experiences of secondaries in Cambridge; 2) experiences of how quickly places arise for over subscribed schools and 3) readers experiences re: moving children without places secured in general

Thank you all very very much for reading and for your feedback

Suggest you post this on Mumsnet Local for Cambridge where you may be more likely to get responses.
