We have 2 schools that we are close enough to get DS1 into - no catchment as such but well within the areas where applications were successful in previous years.
School A is our first choice - oversubscribed but as I say we are pretty close.
School B is second.
I had planned to just put those down on the application but today someone said it was a risk to include B because we might get allocated School B as we live nearer and it's not usually oversubscribed, even though we put A as first preference.
Is this true or does the process automatically match you to the highest place choice on your list if you are close enough? Can't find the answer on council website.
Hope that makes sense!
