Hello.
We moved to Bromley Borough a couple month ago.
We applied In-Year Admission for our DCs.
DC1 got a school place recently.
Since we moved to Bromley, I have been driving to take them to previous school and it was getting too much for me so when I heard that our DC1 was offered a place, I couldn't stop crying.
It was such a relief.
Well, problem now is our DC2.
We still haven't heard anything from Council yet.
It's been 4 weeks since I personally handed all relevant documents in to Council.
The School our DC1 will go is 7 - 10 minutes walk whereas the school DC2 goes takes one hour drive each way....
My DH says he would withdraw DC2 from current school and start home schooling until a space comes up in any school then put DC2 on waiting list at the school DC1 goes.
I've never thought about home schooling so I'm worried but doing school run for two different location, one is 7 - 10 minutes walk and the other one is one hour drive is tough.
Would you choose home schooling in this situation?
Another question is do I have to write a letter to our previous school saying that our DC1 is offered a school place in Bromley Borough and leave this current school for this reason?
I guess we need to write a letter if we decided to withdraw our DC2 from school and start home education.
Any thought or advise is appreciated.
