Would you move in year 6 to be in feeder for secondary?

[Deanofvenice]

My child currently attends a private prep school as I work there.
There is an excellent secondary school in our town, where I would love her to go but you must be in a feeder school to get a place.
Would you move your child in year 6 so they can get into the secondary?
If I leave them at the private school we have the issue of having to try and find the money for private senior, hoping we might get a scholarship etc which is never a certainty!

our local primary state takes children in year 6, they cant' really refuse anyway and also they have to replace the children who leave at the end of year 5 after siting the independent school exams. they need all the bums on seats they can to keep the funding at the same level, as they aren't enough children leaving to drop a form

What does your child want to do?
