Hello
I am wandering if anyone has any advice on school appeals, if I stand a chance
this is my situation, prepare your self quite a long one
my child Refused his primary school admission into reception reason given out of catchment area but still 5 min commute
The school my child has been given is closer so distance is not the issue
my hubby suffers with chronic fibromyalgia and depression/anxiety
This condition can be severe and varies from day to day
i have made arrangements with my sister to help with the school pick ups and drop offs when I am caring for his father or been awake all night due to escorting my hubby for medical requirements, if he’s falllen due to poor mobility.
my sister has a child who also attends the refused school so she will pick up my child in a morning and take him to school
also pick him up after school when needed and takes him to hers on occasions for tea until things are calmer and more settled at home
If My child doesn’t attend the school o he will face missing school on days throughout the week and been late due to not been able to get him there due to caring for his dad when his condition is at his worse
my child’s education will be effected
Also having my sister and his anti as a support person helps lesson any emotional and social interruptions that My child would experience due to missing school.
To send My child to a different school would break that support connection as my sister is only available to help due to travelling to the same school.
i am concerned that my sons educational and emotional and social needs will be greatly affected if he does not attend the school
at that school he has a reliable support from my sister to ensure when it is impossible to get him there on time then the she will take him and the same with pick ups if his farther has fallen or is in great distress my sister will collect My son at same time as her own son and take him home or drop him home.
my child is a very clever happy child and has a fantastic routine and loves school, it is not fair for his schooling to be affected due to unexpected farthers deteration of health.. I just wants to maintain structure and a stable happy routine for My son and try to make sure that the health of his farther does not affect him emotionally.. to have a different school would greatly Add to some form of distress for Him as he would have days off which would lead to poor attendance affecting his education and learning he would be late, also affect my sons emotional needs and social interactions that he requires as a developing child, I just want to maintain his happiness, to attend another school would put My son and and myself under great pressure and stress wich would affect My child, hes a happy 4 year old boy and deserves to be given the chance at a good reliable education
This current routine supports my sons emotional needs and will also ensure he attends school everyday on time and meets his educational needs to
i no the appeals is really hit and miss and I may not stand a chance
thanks in advance
