Hi Education Board people,this is my first thread!
Am checking the admissions procedure for the secondaries in my area. My DD is taking entrance exams this Autumn. Both the schools that require an exam and the ones that dont appear to say the same...
If the parents are not together with shared child-care arrangements then they either look at the residence that is furthest away or go for the middle ground as a way of determining where you slot in the distance from the school for the purposes of catchment etc.
Now my DD lives with me and spends one weekend night a week with her father, perhaps two if convenient and some time at holidays. Her father lives a 30 min drive away. I would not consider this necessarily 'shared care' as Mon to Fri I will be doing the school run and have been throughout the primary years.
Would this count? Should I suddenly be looking at the schools near his house just in case? I am now panicking.
