Hi, We are returning to UK after many years abroad. We have 2 school aged kids going into years 3 and 7. Does anyone know what proofs the LEAS require in order to start their applications? For instance I know we will need to have a UK address, so my husband will go to UK next week and rent a house near the (oversubscribed) schools we're looking at. However we understand we also need to have the kids in the UK in order for the application to be processed. So my question is: how will the LEA actually know whether the child is already in the UK or not? What proof do they require? I say this because I will have to pull them out of their current overseas schools at exam time in order to sit around in the UK with no school whilst the LEA puts us on a waiting list. I know this is the same for everyone returning from overseas but I was hoping to understand how other families have coped with this issue. Thanks
