Dh and I applied for primary school for our ds. We put 2 choices down, with the intention of home educating if we didn't get either.
We didn't, so are all set to start home educating in September (ds is 5 in February).
We got offered a completely different school, didn't accept the place in any way, and the deadline for accepting it passed. We thought this is what we were meant to do. I still think this is the case, but am now doubting whether I was supposed to do anything else.
Last week, we got a letter addressed to "The Parents / Guardian of X".
It was a welcome pack inviting us to attend their open day, in July, with uniform list etc. It does say in big red print YOU MUST BRING YOUR CHILD'S BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
I e-mailed the Local Education Authority, a week ago to explain my position. I didn't mention home ed, just said we didn't want the place, and that I thought we were on the waiting list for the 2 other schools. They automatically put you on the waiting lists if you don't get a school you ranked. They have not replied.
Ds couldn't be officially registered at this school, could he??
Sorry this is a bit long. I hope somebody can help.

Could Ds be registered with this school? Hopefully someone can reassure me.
