Could someone with admissions knowledge/experience help, please? We are moving house to be in catchment for a certain school for our daughter, for whom we make a preference this year. We are also trying to get our son a place in this school, we have lost at appeal, hence the (long term) house move. However, the house we want to move to is 1.1 miles from desired (but full and waiting list in force) school but 2.7 to non desired school with places. Assuming the LEA will refuse our Sept application for a place at desired school, what are our chances at re appeal (significant and material change in circumstances) ? The 3 mile statutory walking distance, is there any flexibility in this and whose final decision is it, school or LEA? TIA
