Our choice was the school Storm went to - Foundry Lane - where we know everyone and I am involved in helping out from time to time. It's where she has been at Pre-School since September and has a group of little friends and is known and loved by everyone and irrational though it is it has made me unbelievably sad to think that she won't know anyone at the school the council have decided she is going to. How is that fair?
And how is it fair that people who have no connection to the place get first dibs, If Storm was six months younger he would still be there and it would be all good - but this means I will have to find a new pre-school for Toby, and use a childminder before and after school because of the times I work. And I have never even been to the school. Plus it's only an infant school so I will have the same heart ache and issues in 3 years when she moves to Juniors.
I don't need this right now. I am stressed and upset and nearly 7 months pregnant and on the 1st March I will have this trauma again when the secondary school decisions are made.
And from what I can gather I have no real grounds to appeal on.
This sucks.
A lot.
