Finding out about schools tomorrow!!
Hiya,
does any one else have a child starting school this September??
My daughter does and I can't wait to find out if she got into the school we want her to go to. I really hope so!!!
We also have another baby on the way which is due in July so this school would be closer to walk to which would be great with a new baby too. We both drive but walking is sooo much easier in rush hour, plus it will help me lose the baby weight!!

Is the other school not walking distance?
I hope he gets in, good luck!!xx
We'd have to get the bus to the other one, he wouldn't be able to walk all the way there.
I can't believe you know already, march seems like ages away!!
I really think they should take distance into consideration, especially as they want everyone to walk and cut down on pollution. And it will take longer to get there when they start early enough as it is without having to leave the house earlier than normal. (I'm not a morning person at the mo lol, this pregnancy has knocked it out of me and my daughter has to get me up in the mornings haha.)
Yeah March is quite a wait! I thought it was January for everyone.
Let me know how you get on!xxx
We now live in Bahrain in the middle east due to OH job. My 4 year old had to sit an entrance test to get into school. there are only 2 british schools here and if they dont pass you dont get in...simple!!!!!! It was nerve wracking. He was fine though. However, if he steps out of line or is not keeping up he will be out!!!!!!!!!! My next child is 3 in oct so will be tested next easter. dreading it as he is a handful and still not making a lot of sense with speech etc.. IF he does not get in we would have to move back home but looks like simliar probs there though the govt has to get them a school place even if 200 miles away!!!!!!!!
Hope you have all appealed if you did not get your choice!
Whats the UK coming too????????
