I have just applied for my 4 year old daughter to attend the reception at the school she already goes for nursery which is the same school her 6 year old sister goes to but I have been refused and offered a place at a school 2 miles from my home and its a catholic school which I feel the government are preaching to me and trying to force religion onto my child when we have no religious beliefs, I questioned the reason to why she was not given a place and it due to being outside the catchment area which i dont understand as my child got in last year and my other child got in 3 years ago and there has always been a high demand for this school, and i was told that even if I appeal I will loose and should either find another school for my youngest daughter or both my children and should take my eldest out?? I can not sleep properly and this matter is stressing me out beyond belief how can I be at 2 schools in a morning and afternoon and why should I take my child out of a school she is doing well in and happy in because the education authority wont let my youngest child go to the same school as her sister??? Im at my wits end.
