We're moving in the summer (long distance rather than locally) & will be in the geographical catchment of the one of the local schools (school A) in a 2 primary school town.
Called them today to check what info was needed to apply, we've been told they only have a space for one child (our older one) & while the younger one would be top of the waiting list & would have space the following year as they expand the class size.
School B also have a waiting list for my younger child's year.
The admission officer for school A says that it is likely our son will have to go to school in another village (either 2 miles/8mins drive or 3 miles/10mins drive)... interesting school run to get them
both there given husband will be commuting an hour (& guess I won't be rushing to get a new job 🤦🏻♀️)
Understand application for son will be rejected and we will be given chance to appeal - AIBU to ask if these ever successful/any salient things to put into it?
Or, does anyone have any positive stories about moving to a new area and having their children at different primary's in different towns/villages and still being able to make friends/get involved in school life/keeping up with admin?!
