We are about to put our house on the market and we're hoping to sell it and buy a new place ASAP as our son is due to start primary school next year.
We ideally want to have a new house in time for January's primary school application, but we are cutting it very fine!
Depending on timings, what are our options if we are not yet in our new place by the deadline, but are in the process of a sale going through (for example)?
Should we still apply for schools close to our current house as back-up? Can we put down schools near to our new place?
We are considering a few different areas, all no more than about 20-30 mins away from where we are now, although some come under a different borough.
Would appreciate any advice or reassurance from anyone who has been in this situation. Feeling very anxious about the whole thing!
