All the schools I am applying for for my DS to start next September are out of our catchment area. When applying online there's a box to write your additional reasons as to why your child should attend that school.
I'm a bit stuck on what to write. I don't have a sob story, I just really like the schools and the only one in our catchment area is a dump.
Do I need to think of something emotive to just state the facts? I don't know if it will really help our application anyway.
Does anyone remember or would anyone be able to share what they have written? I can only think to put positive things we know about te school from visiting & reading the ofsted reports. But it has a maximum of 3000 characters which makes me think some people must have a lot to say, so why am I struggling?

Hi. I thought I already made my own post! Is there any other option to send posts?! I could find just this one. Thanks
