Hi, I'm looking for help / advice regarding primary school placements.
My DS hasn't gained entry into any of our village schools, one is 0.29 miles from our home, but takes church points as preference, the other is 0.6 miles and we were 31 - therefore he was refused on infant class size.
We went to appeal hearings for both schools, citing our primary reason as DS safety & security for both DS and ourselves - his Father works in a High Security Prison and the school place we have been offered is located in an area in which puts us & DS in danger, we fear we would be recognized..
We provided substantial evidence of this, yet the LEA feel that the decision to refuse was reasonable in the circumstances.
2 months ago I was 1st on the waiting list for our preferred school, since then, a late application from another child who has moved closer to the school than us has resulted in us being moved back to 2nd on the waiting list.
Is there anything more I can do?
Im at a loss.
Thanks
