Hi there -
Just wondering if anyone has any advice. We moved to a new area last December and obviously weren’t able to visit any schools, nor did we know anyone really to ask opinions of. We put down a school in the next village which had a great website / video tour, and put our local one second choice.
However since then having met more people and spoken to them, and most crucially found out were pregnant again with our 3rd, we think we’ve made a mistake.
We got our first choice in the next village, but we were out of catchment. There’s a lot of development going on there and now I’m v worried my next 2 children may jot get in there with the extra people much closer than us. I’m also worried about the logistics of school run with 3 and not having local friends in same village if we ever needed help with pick ups etc, and being able to return favour.
Is it just a case of putting our daughter on the waiting list for our local school (which was our second choice) and hoping she gets a place there instead?
The other school is v good, but it’s more a case of wanting to ensure all 3 get into the same school and making logistics work.
