Hi OakR, Loigal,
Thanks for the recommendations, I have asked to join the Facebook mums group. I have one follow up question. I was trying to read some of Lewisham council's documentation on primary places. They seem to have this concept of Primary Place Planning Localities. Does that mean that if I live within PPL1, I will get allocated a school within that region? My main worry was that I would like in Forest Hill and might get allocated a place in Brockley or somewhere else and have to drive very far.
