Late Admission

[anjlikansal]

My 4 years old son is getting late admission

What are you asking

do you mean you have deferred his place or not applied for a school in time and now need an in-year place ?

Yes I was late for his admission and now council(admission department) says all schools are full and I have to wait for couple of weeks. plz suggest!

Whens his birthday

16 july 2009

Have you put him on waiting lists for all your local schools.

thats what council says he is on waiting.. In the mean time what other activities he can go for

Whatever else in the area suits his age group, such as swimming or play groups? Many will want paying for a full term up front though. Or see if there is a local Home Education group which may have activities or Children's centre. He doesn't have to be in school/education until the term after he turns 5 though so a place will probably come up before then .

When did you apply?

The LA do have to find a school place for him, although this can be at any school. They have to find a place for him now, even though he is not five until July. They have to provide a school place for him the September after his fourth birthday- info here.
