Early days but just looking for advice. DH has been offered a final interview for a job that would mean moving approx 50 miles away. It's a good career move and a town with more reasonable (lower) house prices so if he gets it and the pay is good then we will probably take it.
DS is 4 and we found out last week that he was accepted to our first choice school for reception in September. Obviously if we move that won't happen. So can anyone please tell me:
What happens if we move, is it a 'late' application or something different?
If the school we want in the new area has a space would we simply apply and get in (assuming no religious/whatever criteria?). If the school is full in reception do we go on a waiting list - at the end?
Can we do anything before moving, will we have to complete first?
Does it make much difference if we complete before September?
Um, more questions I'm sure. Obviously if all goes ahead I will contact the relevant authority and schools for a full picture of local policy etc but just need an idea of how it is likely to go. It's Slough area BTW.
