We are moving to a new area with 2 primary aged kids. One will be in year 6 and due to apply for secondary in the autumn (for 2018). We will most likely get offered and accepted the catchment secondary. Other will be in year 3.
The catchment primary plus the other primaries in the same catchment as the secondary are all full at the moment in the required year groups. There is another nearby primary in a different secondary catchment. I expect that more or less none of the children there will get into our catchment secondary.
Assuming we can apply for 3 schools, do we need to apply for the full schools in order to get on waiting lists? If we exclude the school with places will we still be offered a place there if the others remain full? Or will we be left with nothing? I'm concerned about my year 6 moving into a new school and then moving again next year with no-one she knows.
