I've been allocated a school which was not any of our three 'preferences' much to the shock of our current preschool who assumed she'd be going there.
So we called the school we have been allocated and asked to go to visit them to talk about our concerns and so DD could have a look round.
They've told us we can't go for several weeks because they are doing SATS (which makes me a bit to start with but never mind....) anyway, this means we are going to have to accept the place or lose it with the LEA before we've even seen the school.
I know accepting doesn't matter in terms of appeals etc. But it just feels really unfair to expect me to say yes to something I haven't seen. Can they do this?
