We will be moving towards the end of the year, hopefully October time. DS1 (7yo) is most likely going to have to move schools, DS2 (3yo in December) would have been starting nursery in January 2010.
We'll be privately renting, so obviously need to find a house in the next couple of months, ready to go in October-ish. Do I need to secure a school and nursery place before we put a deposit down on a house? Or if we put a deposit down on a house, do the local EA have to find the places for us? If that's the case, can we specify that we don't want a certain school/s? And does the school have to be within a certain distance from the house? Or, is it a case of moving in and then sorting the school?
Also, is there any notice or anything we have to give to the school he's in now? Or is that up to the school?
Any other advice about the logistics of this would be really helpful TIA

In which order do I need to sort these thing's out? (Re. moving house/schools)
