For reasons out of my control we have moved to an area at very short notice and applied for school places for our DC as soon as we could, 2 weeks ago. I was resigned to the fact that we school we would be offered probably wouldn't be great.
However the council have now responded to say that all (12!) primary schools in the town are full, that we will need to appeal, that the appeal will happen after schools go back in September. Meaning even if an appeal was successful the DC would miss the first half term of school.
Does this seem right? I'm not trying to be a fussy parent holding out for my first choice school, I just want my kids to get an education, with other kids, in school.
How would I even appeal? Can you appeal stating 'any school place at all please' or do you just appeal to one school?
Can anyone offer any help or advice at all?
