Dear friends, My family is moving to the UK(Leicester) for about 2 years. I'm not sure on how to get details about schools n housing for us. My kids are 7, 5 and 3 years old. I've been told bout something called catchment area for schools. Do ul have any idea on which schools in Leicester are good and their catchment area.. How can I get details on this? My Husband is going to be working in the University hospital Leicester and I'll have to see what to do once I get there. I've been told it would be too difficult to work with small kids cos of school holidays and baby care.. Can ul give me your opinions on this.. Shuld I wait till the end of the academic year or move right away with my husband? He has to leave within a month..
Hi There are plenty of things to do in Leicester and also plenty of Indian shops. For school term holidays check this link out as there are plenty of activities: Family activities and events for primary school children | Primary Times Also you will find the community very helpful so do come along and enjoy your stay in Leicester.
Oh by the way for housing your husband will have been given a list of properties he can rent so ask the hospital to provide this plus they will be able to help with almost all the queries you will have like children's schooling etc hope this helps all the best
