My dd is just finishing year 7 and has been really miserable at her new secondary school. She hasn't fit in well and has been bullied quite badly.
We are at a point where we really need to take her out of the school for her mental health. We sent off the forms to change but pretty much as we did that a local school announced it was shutting (its an academy so I don't think it's the councils choice but I'm not totally sure how it works).
We have been told by the other schools we asked for and the local authority that the other schools in the area are massively oversubscribed now so it's unlikely there will be any places for her.
Since she is a place is it likely she will be told she has to stay where she is?
I'm not sure how much of a good idea it's going to be to subject her to another year like this one and the school has been no help at all.
