I need advice,
I'm a single mum who has moved from Birmingham to Devon 4 years ago due to my mom who lives in Devon having a illness and to care for her, I moved to Devon with my then 3 year old daughter who was just starting nursery so it was fine but since moving to devon I miss my old friends in Birmingham, I have found it hard finding a job and now my sister in Birmingham has offered me a room at hers in Birmingham and a new job which pays well if I want it but my problem is my daughter is now 7 and in year 3 and I don't obviously want to pull my daughter out of school, I know its wrong and could affect her but my daughter has said she don't mind moving back and going to a new school. I can't apply for a school place in Birmingham from Devon and have been advised I would have to be living with my sister first for a school place in Birmingham. I am so stressed out but im jobless here In devon going to food banks, applying for jobs everywhere but no luck so far. I really want to move back to my home city but its just down to the school. So my question is to all you other mothers. How would I do this? Shall I just take the move and hope a school place comes up or Do I need to go speak to my daughters current head teacher for acceptance to leave (even though she has no current future school place) but ask anyway. I really don't know the laws? I don't want to ruin my daughters schooling so please don't think I'm making a brash decision as I'm trying to make the best decision and I would really like that new job as I'm so poor now and finding it hard to cover for rent at the moment. Please can someone give me advice.
