Hi everyone
Just after any advice is possible?
I applied for a primary school place out of our catchment area due to it being closest to my parents house who when I'm at work will be taking and collecting my Daughter from school, she already attends the nursery there and has obviously made some good friends and built up lots of confidence and has really developed over the last few months.
I knew we wouldn't get offered as her first choice school (we are on the waiting list) so we were offered the 2nd choice but I'm going to have major childcare issues with this.
I work till 6pm 3 days a week, I have no-one to collect my Daughter (My Mam no longer drives) and Husband works late aswell, I prepared my Daughter few months ago saying she might have to go to a different school and since then she's been waking up crying saying she will miss her friends and doesn't want to go to a new school, I can only settle her with having her in my bed giving her a cuddle.
I'm am going to appeal and I'm just wanting to gather as much information/advice as I can. I'm so worried that if the appeal falls through I'll have to contemplate giving up my job, we cannot afford after school childcare as that's why she would be going to her grandparents house, I also have a baby who will be looked after by my Mam so I really don't know how they can expect me to take baby to my Mams drop my Daughter at school and be at work for 9am.
It's all really stressing me out, I know that it's 5 months away and she could still get offered a place if someone drops out but I'm besides myself with worry.
Thanks in advance xx
