DD is due to start reception in Jan 2004. Just got the letters back. Only once school has taken her, its far away, its the one I liked least and it has one of the worst reputations in the area.
The school I was hoping to get her into is quite literally across the road from her current nursery school. I rang them and said we live about 400 yards from you school, why didn't DD get in. Apparently there were 30 people nearer, but she is 2nd reserve. So only 2 people need to turn this school down for her to get a place. I have to ring next Friday, the 10th, to find out if she is in.
The thing is the only school that has taken her needs me to reply by the 10th.
Do I send back the form saying yes I want the place, and then if the school where I really want her to go tells me there is a place can I tell the other school we have changed our minds?
The only school she has gotten into really was my back up plan, but I hated it when I visited.
I only applied for 3 as they were the only non church ones...this sucks. If I don't have the baby before Wednesday (the 8th) I'm going into to be induced, so now I have no idea how I'm going to sort this all out.
