My son is currently in Year 4. Our plan is to move area at some point in the next couple of years. (Long, boring, but very valid reasons for needing to do this).
I can't think of a way to do it that doesn't move my son to a new school before year 6. If we're not in the new area for secondary applications we may miss out on getting any of our chosen schools but I hate the idea of uprooting him from the primary he really loves before his SATs.
So really this is a WWYD? Do we stay put and take our chances that we can move after SATs (into rented at first probably) and get into a decent secondary at the new location as an in-year admission (we could potentially go with an independent school if desperate) , or do we move next year and be in the new location before secondary applications need to be in? (again potential to send him to an independent primary if there is no space in local state primaries).
I'm going round in circles with this and just can't see what to do for the best. Any help and advice gratefully received!
Thanks.
