I’ve posted about this before but can’t find my original thread! Basically we will be applying to some private sixth forms and one state. The state is our preference. The privates’ acceptance deadline is three months before the state’s school informs you if you have a place. If I accept a place at private and pay the half term’s fee deposit but then subsequently we get a state place do I just lose my deposit (even though we will know months before start of term and they’d have a waiting list)? I’m assuming the answer is yes but £3k+ seems a lot to write off.
