Hi
We are currently trying to get a place for dd (y1) in our local school. We completed in-year application but they are full...fine for time being she is in decent enough school but will need to move her eventually for various reasons which I won't bother with now.
Anyway, our LA Admission team do not keep waiting list for in year and I know the December 2014 admission code says they don't have to for in year however, they are now telling us it is actually 'illegal' for them to keep in year waiting lists. Can this be true???
They are allocating places on first come first served basis (their words) and explained if a place becomes available and your form is the next on the pile you get the place.
It seems to us that they are not giving any regard to admission criteria by doing this and surely this can't be right either?
Any clarification would be much appreciated.
Thanks
