Thanks a lot for this response. I will look them up. Did you have to get a laptop for your boy? Mine just has a samsung tablet and I don't lknow if that works

==========โ‰ˆ=========================
No, I didn't get a laptop. He goes to the club twice a week and he has access to their computers. The software they use is tailor made for kids and not the adult version we all know (else kids will be bored๐Ÿ˜€). They teach them the same concept though as they would be able to, with time, use it in adult version. No need for laptop.

===================================
Yes, you can. Contact you council and let them know you just moved to the area with your family. They will try to put your child in a school (not necessarily your preferred choice).

If you have a preferred school, ask to be put on the wait list. They will contact you once a space becomes available.
Goodluck.

Was about to mention them cos I see them around Enfield town.. Seems they aren't in Birmingham area though

===========================
Oh! That's a shame. I thought they were expanding recently and covered Birmingham. @OP, if you struggle to find a physical one, I know an online one which your son can start with until you find a face to face one? I tried them with my son, I liked the content but my boy wasn't keen on online, he preferred face to face (which of course is more expensive, I was looking for cheaper option, lol) so we kept with F2F. If you are interested, will dig out their details.

I am not advising anyone to do more than 20hours. But two of my sisters got psw within 24hours of applying, and they did more than 20 hours for two years.

This is not true. PSW takes average of 6 weeks decision time. Haven't heard of anyone who applied and got decision in a week not to talk of 24 hrs

Yes apply on your council site amd they will give your child next available school but if you want the one close to you apply to be on waiting list and he will change from the one he is attending to the new one once his name is out

Mine isn't keen about the online as well, but I don't mind having a look at any details you can send across. What is the name of the F2F that your son is on now? Is there a similar one in Birmingham?

Get a laptop. Even if it's a cheap one off eBay, it'll work for the basic coding he'd be doing, and be way better than a tablet.

There are tablet apps for coding but most are just gimmicks. Best to start him on the right foot.

Afternoon all,

I'm looking to relocate to the greater Manchester area early next year. There's a lot of information online but thought I'd ask the house if there's any area one should consider or areas to avoid due to work opportunities etc. In life I believe shared experiences can make one avoid some regrets later so any tips would be appreciated.

Calm down. Because you have not heard doesn't mean it's a lie.

I got my new visa (not PSW) in less than 1 working day as well.

Has anyone travelled out of UK as a student during term-time with no issues. I am looking to take one month for my dads burial but school is saying they can give me only two weeks. I am on my dissertation which doesnt require physical attendance in school.

You dont really need to be in the cities ( that is where the best opportunities lies ) because it can be very expensive (excess of 1k ) to get a decent accommodation . The transportation system in Greater manchester is ok to get you where you want to be if you plan yourself well so you can s .What you need is to be around people you can identity with to get the necessary connections and network so as to get access to informations .
