How far away can you be (or are you) away from your DC's schools?
We're moving to my hometown after Christmas (if we can't find a house beforehand). January is the deadline. DD1 turned 5 2 weeks ago and theoretically should be in reception. Luckily we've had the leeway of her staying in nursery until January for the mere fact of saving the heartache of her moving to a new school to then be taken out of it and moved to another.
We want her to attend the school the rest of her cousins attend to but there are no houses available to suit our budget in the area within 1.5 miles walking distance of the school. We've already increased our affordability just to be closer but nothing. Neither of us drive yet and buses aren't the best dependency.
