Middlemarch school good?

[CSY]

I have just moved to nuneaton from abroad and my girl has been offered to go to middlemarch school which is so far from my home. Does anyone know anything about this school? I am new to the area, so I don’t have any idea.

What happen if I don’t accept the offer? Or I should accept and appeal at the same time? What should I do?

I have another younger boy go to year 1, but he has no school offer yet. Middlemarch school only has year 3-6, so they won’t go to the same school. It’s a problem for me. Thank you!

How far is too far?
What are the other options?

All the schools I applied have refused my application, this is the only school the council give me.

I need to drive 15 -20mins to the school without traffic but as far as I know the road is very busy in the morning . So it will probably take even more time than 20mins. I cant get them both to school on time.

You need to focus on your younger child. It's not acceptable to simply have no offer. Your borough MUST find a school for him. Once he has a place then see if there is a vacancy there for your older one, and if not appeal for her. Logistical reasons won't win at appeal though (you're expected to find a way to get them both to school even if it means using childcare). However moving to a new area and both being at the same school could be important as an argument for integrating into the local community quickly.

But getting a place for the younger is absolutely the most important thing here.

I hv just received the offer for my son! There’s no way they can be together 😵‍💫 the school my son going is from reception to year 2. And my daughter goes to the school that only has year 3-6.

And what happen to son after year 2? I am sorry coz I am new to the UK education system. I need apply in year application for him again?

Then your choices are to find a 4-11 school that has spaces for both, or if the start times are the same (and they may well have staggered starts as plenty of parents will have to do two school runs given that neither cater for all years) look into a breakfast club or childminder for one, or one is always late.

Yes you will have to apply by Jan 2023 for a year 3 space for youngest.

Would it be very competitive? How does the system work? I assume the kids can will go to Year 3 directly in the same school, so there will be very few places for us to apply. Is my understanding correct?

Do you mean there's a linked junior school on the same site, or very near? In which case have you applied for your older one to go there? And appealed if she was refused a place?

You'd need to check the admission criteria for the junior - if it's linked to the infant it should give priority to those at the infants.
