We currently live in the catchment area for the primary school we want our son to go to.
We are thinking about doing some building work to our house, which is likely to require us to move out for a few months or maybe even a year (depending on how slow the builders are!). During this time we'd need to rent somewhere else to live. Ideally we'd be nearby, but there aren't many rentals round here so we might need to move a bit further away.
We will be applying for primary schools for our son at the end of this year (for Sept 26 entry). If we are temporarily living elsewhere, will that be considered to be our home at the time of application? If so we'll probably delay or rethink getting the work done.
Just to be clear - I'm not attempting to move temporarily into a catchment area (I know that's not allowed!) I'm worried that temporarily moving out will make that our home for the application.
