We currently live in the catchment area of all the worst schools in the city.
I have no realistic chance of moving before DS1 starts secondary school but he has his heart set on an over-subscribed school OUT of the catchment area and so realistically he has no chance of getting in...
But then I realised that schools have to give priority to children with "special needs", my son is dyspraxic and has extra help at school (action + or something?) and has been described as having special needs but he has no formal diagnosis or a specific condition or anything...I know it sounds awful but is this "special needs enough" to get him into this specific school or by "special needs" do they mean something else?
