We have decided to go for it and move back to the UK next summer. My husband will be staying in the US to work but will come over whenever he can. I’m going to rent a house with the children (1,3 & 5)very close to my parents and other immediate family. My husband ( a US citizen) works away a lot and I’m tired of not having any support while he’s gone. Eventually he will join us to live and we will all be there permanently. I’m most concerned about access to healthcare and schools. My five year old will need to start school in September 2018 and I’m hoping the local primary will have a spot for her! Does anyone have any experience in this? I know there’s a deadline for applications but we will miss that since we won’t be living back there until the summer. Will we be able to use the NHS? I plan to apply for US citizenship before we leave so I have both. Can anyone think of other things I should do to make our lives easier before we get back?!
