Sixth Form Dilema

[Victronnix]

Hi everyone. First post!

My son was set on a career as a chef but having spent a fortnight working as a sous chef and doing a 15 hour shift on a Saturday 😮 he's decided catering is not for him! So he's declined his place in catering college.
He's applied to two colleges late for a levels, one has been amazing and have offered him a place to do his three alevels. The other won't even look at his application until the 31st August. Trouble is, his enrolment meeting is today at one college, but the other college has a bus route through our village.

If we accept the place today and enrol him can he still change to the other college if they offer him a place? Have even phoned our LEA and they don't know the answer!

Would be so grateful for any advice on this.

Yes.
There is lots of movement in the first couple of weeks of term.
Accept the place 'bird in the hand' whilst you wait for the '2 in the bush'.
If he gets a place there, then you can let the first one know asap so they can offer it to someone else.

Good decision re avoiding catering, IMO . Shows WE can be useful for many dc.
