Long sorry so will try hard to summarise and answer any questions but I wondered what people would do in the following circumstances.
Current two schools in catchment are very oversubscribed. No chance of getting into one, slim chance of getting into the other. Both are 1 mile+ away along busy roads. Huge capacity issues in the area, projected shortfall of 30 places in area for 2013 intake. Local council has proposed building a new school in the village. Proposed sites are all easy walking distance from my house. School admission forms have to be returned by middle of January.
The time table for the new school includes a decision on the site and the school provider (two local schools have expressed an interest in running it as a satellite) in the middle of December. This will still be subject to a formal statuority consultation period and planning consents which won't be concluded by the time admission forms need to be sent in but selecting this new school (albeit just in the planning stages at the moment) is apparently an option.
Would you choose this new school? Would you send your child there?
Thanks
