Moving into rented accommodation in the catchment area-when can
I safely move back?  (282 Posts) enlondon Wed 10-Apr-13 01:00:03
I am thinking of renting a property in the catchment area of a
secondary school. Once I have done this and my child is given a
place (presuming everything has gone to plan and the catchment
area has not all off the sudden become even smaller etc), how
much longer do I need to live there before I can move safely
back to our house outside the catchment area? As soon as I have
filled in the application? As soon as my child is offered the
place? As soon as my child has actually started in September? I
actually called the LEA to ask this question and they were not
sure. I asked a different LEA the same question about another
school and they said that I could move out of the catchment area
as soon as the application form was received! They seemed
puzzled by my question though, understandably, and not sure if I
trust their answer.  tiggytape Sat 30-Aug-14 11:08:29  Lavender
