My DS (in Y7 currently) got conditional on CE place in day school but now we are also looking at boarding schools. We are very late with applications for boarding schools. One of them confirmed place for us (not our first choice) and the other one (first choice) will only be able to answer in October.
We haven't really decided whether he will go to day or boarding school (it would depend on our personal circumstances). It seems like we will need to pay deposit to day school, the second choice boarding school and if he gets through to our first choice boarding school. It is a lot of money, but I don't really have choice - I want to make sure he has a place in boarding school in case our circumstances change.
Is that allowed to pay deposits to several schools? I know we have to pick one school for sitting Common Entrance but can I pay deposits to three schools and then withdraw the place before CE?
