I am British but currently live abroad. We had assumed we would return next year ready for September 2017 school year.
My son would enter reception and my daughter Y3 at this point.
We knew we would find it hard to find places as these are bulge years it seems. Just realised the local private school we had as our "in case" doesn't look now like a good option. We are now panicking about where we should go so they can have a decent education (UK or otherwise).
I want to know if there is anyone I can talk to about admissions (and applying from abroad but eg with a confirmed rental or owned address) in the specific LEAs we are considering and also point us to schools which might suit. We aren't as bothered about Ofsted (feel that some heads know how to play the game- understandably) as softer stuff and sport.
I see lots of people posting wisely on here but googling "education consultant" brings up those who help with Ofsted prep etc..
Any advice or pointers? Not London, a couple of hours away up north from there.
Thank you for any advice. I appreciate it is a busy time at the moment.
