Has anyone else been in a simialr situation, and can you help?
We are buying a brand new house in a given primary school catchment area. The house should be ready by December.
DD is currently 2y 9m. She will start school in January 2007 (I think as two entries; birthday in April so will miss Sept 2006) so I think we have to register by the end of this year???
However, until the house is built we have to rent. There is only a certain number of rentals in the right catchment and we haven't found anything suitable yet. We have to move in about a month we think.
If we move into a house nearby, but not in the same catchment what happens?
Our new house will be in catchment school A
The rental house is close by but in Catchment school B.
If not in the new house when we have to register for the school, what happens?
How likely are we to get into School A (a popular, bery good school)?
Or are we better to go for a rental house not as suitable, to ensure the right catchment?
Any help or advice would be really appreciated please!
TIA
