DS has not been offered a place at any of his three prefs. We are appealing to all three as the school offered is not suitable for variety of reasons. We have also been looking at private options (not that we can afford this, but you sometimes have to do what you have to do for your children and it would mean major changes for all of us).
My question is, do we need to tell the appeal panel, if they ask us directly if we have applied to any other schools, that we have looked at private schools? My fear is that they will just think 'oh, if they can afford private then they don't really need this school they are appealing for'.
Help! This is so terrifying and we really do not want to screw our appeals up!
