I want to move DD to another school, but there are no places, so she would have to go on a waiting list. I have just got off the phone to Sunderland council, who tell me that the only way of getting on the waiting list is to get a form signed by her current head teacher, which potentially leaves her in a school where they know she is leaving until a child leaves from the new school, and maybe a few, depending on how many are ahead of us.
DH won't let me HE her.
There are other schools that might possibly have one place, but they are a journey away, and if I am going to move her, I want to move her closer to home, not further away.
Moving as current school is Catholic and we aren't, and they are getting more and more extreme. She only got in this one as it was the only one with a place, and that was after a few months on 8 waiting lists. She is in Year one, and DD2 will turn 3 soon, so she will need a school too.
