First visits to local secondaries this year. I never go out in the evenings so the late nights after work have left me shattered Blush .

And having actually seen the local secondaries I'm now in a blind panic about where to send my PFB in 2018.

We only have two to choose from, did the catchment one last year and going to the non catchment one on Monday with everything crossed that we get into it

Yes, DS is year 5 reality.

Thanks the second. Choosing a nice primary was so much easier!

I'm a veteran of these events (four children at two different secondary schools). They are exhausting at the best of times: very crowded and everyone is a bit fraught because it's a big decision. Once you've heard one speech from a headteacher, you've pretty much heard them all.

Try not to panic, at least you have another year to think about it.

I have 6 schools to visit in the next three weeks. Is your ds/d in year 5?
