I am moving 275 miles in 8 weeks time. We have agreed a rental contract and booked removers.
I thought I'd start looking at schools so I phoned the local authority. They have said that they will only tell me which schools have places once we have moved. Then I will have to look at schools, apply and wait 10 working days for them to offer me a place. Then I have to accept the place through them and wait for confirmation from the school.
All in all DS will be out of school for 4 weeks. This leads straight into the Christmas holidays so he will actually spend 6-7 weeks out of school.
I happen to work from home but it's going to be difficult with a 6.5 year old under my feet. I am so tempted to go shopping every day and hope we get picked up by a truancy sweep!
