Hi
Hoping for some more expert advice. I have posted before about the rules around renting in catchment if we don't find a house to buy before the school application deadline (jan 17). Ultimately we want to buy a house in school catchment and be in walking distance, however I am worried we won't find the right house in time (we made a mistake buying out current house and don't want to repeat that). We are moving to a new town so if we can't find a hiuse to buy we will rent instead.
If we rented a house on a long term rental so that we were living there when we had to apply for schools, but found a house to buy in the catchment (and managed to move) in between applying and our dc starting school (so between jan and September) would the school just take our new address for application purposes? So as long as the house we bought was still in catchment, we would be assessed on our new address? Or would this effectively be a late application, and if so what would that mean for us?
Thank you...
