Moved to this new area in March, DS got a place at our nearest school which will be starting in September. However DD who will be going to Year 4 in September didn't get a place at our nearest school. Being on the waiting list for 3 months now, her position is no. 3. The in year admission officer advised us to appeal through email, on the letter she sent us it said the school is full however we can appeal if we want.
My current situation is, I'm 37 weeks pregnant. My husband's job requires him to travel out of UK at least twice a month, so he won't be able to help sending and picking up our kids during that time. Frequent transfer of school is not good for my daughter's development so I kept her in her current school, which is about 1 hour's drive on the motorway everyday. She needs to get up very early and came back very tired. I don't know what can I do if the new baby comes out and how can I manage to send my DD and DS to 2 different schools at the same time in September.
So, What ground should I base if I'm going to appeal? Do they allow to bring laptops so I can do a PowerPoint and show my points? Already getting nervous now.
