Hiya, excuse starting a new thread about this but my other one quietened down a bit and I need advice on this specific point, if anyone knows their stuff on admissions
Basically, we want to remove ds1 from his school at some point in the near future. However we might be sending him back if things improve, and if his place is still available say in 6 months or so.
Ds2 is starting reception this autumn. We've applied for him based on having a sibling, but obviously if ds1 is leaving to be HE'd (even on a temporary basis) I'm worried ds2 won't get his place.
We applied in January, we find out at the end of March where he's got in, but if we take ds1 out NOW does it mean ds2 might not be allocated the place there? Do they check the school roll when allocating sib places?
Also if they have already allocated ds2's place, we might be free to remove ds1 now - but we can't find out because they won't tell us till march.
I'm not quite sure what to do - wait till we find out where ds2 has been allocated, and then remove ds1 I suppose is the obvious thing to do, but I'm not sure how appeals work and so on and what our best option is.
Thankyou for any insight. I have confused the man at the LEA already this morning and he was veyr nice but didn't really know what to advise

Can I just check when exactly reception places are allocated?
