dupyshoo:
If you are coming to England, the 7 year old will be in year 3 in September after clocking 7, 11 year old will be in year 7 ( 1st year in high school). Your last child can't start school until he/she is 4 year old. The governmentwill give you 15hrs free nursery once your baby is 3 year old though.

Regarding timing, it is usually better to enrol them in September when the session starts. However, you can still bring them in January. You might not be able to get them into your desired school due to

oversubscription. I will advise you start looking at
schools now and plan where you will live based on that.
Thanks for the information

What class your kids are in Nigeria or any other country will be irrelevant here.... class in the UK is based on age and its followed to the dot. They all be put in the class that their age is meant to be. There an online calculator were you can put the date of birth and it would show you the class ( laziness to find it so check google)

2. Because the kids are different sex with one older than 10yrs then its most likely at least 3 bed needed
Thank you so much for the reply

I assume you are coming from the US so if you give an indication of the equivalent class in Nigeria people will understand better. In England classes are allocated based on age of the child so for example, the 7 year old (If he was born before September) will be in Year 3.
Thanks for your reply the grade 6 means primary 6, while the grade 2 is primary 2. They use a British curriculum which is a cambridge system in their school . So they refer to it as grade. Instead of the jss1 they call it check point 1(grade 7).

Good day to all the gurus on this platform. I got an admission to one of the uk school and will be migrating with my family by January when my school resumes,but I need advice on this:

(1) my daughter will be 11yrs by January ,she is presently in grade 6 and will be writing her grade 6 exam to enter checkpoint 1, by April next year .in which by then, I would have left. I want to know if it is possible for her to get admitted to the same grade 6, when we get to uk in January?because by then ,she will be left with just 1 term for her to graduate from grade 6,or should I rather leave her behind to finish her exam before she joins us. My boy too which is also 7, will be going to grade 2 by January. I hope they wount have to wait till September before they get admitted ?

(2) with a family of 5 , boy 7yrs, girl 11yrs and the othe 1yr 3month ., my husband and I . Will 2bedroom be sufficient for us or it as to be 3bedroom.?
Thank you

You can call the school directly thru this number +441142254957 and ask for the status of your application. They will tell you if the money as reflected on ur application. I was told they will start issuing CAS probably next week.

@Kenny4smart @emmynent @nattty @DeehoneyHomes @Gtessy @segunotiti

Thank you guys for your responses earlier again regarding Sheffield Hallam University.

We paid the tuition fee deposit via bank transfer from the UK on Friday, Sept 17 and we got a mail with reference number however we are yet to get an email confirming the payment of the deposit.

I put a call through to the Nigerian office and I was told they do not have access to see anything regarding payment and to wait for an email from finance or so. This is Tuesday and no emails yet. I have also tried to call the International Office and it keeps going into voicemail.

How long did it take from the date of payment to the date you got the confirmation of payment email? Is there any specific email I can send the reference number I got to?

Thank you once again
We are in the same ship o,I even paid on the 3rd of September and up till now have not gotten any mail from them. But I called the finance office and they confirmed they have received the deposit. I was told they dont send confirmation when money is received. The Nigerian office told me they are still dealing with the September intakes and before they can attend to January it will be late September or October. Normally when they receive the payment 3 days later, they book you for pre cas interview and after that 5 days after pre cas if passed, cas will be sent over to you.

SirWellington:
I just had a conversation with a colleague who applied for UK tier 4 dependant visa but was denied. He declared he has someone in the UK other than his wife the main applicant (his younger sister who's married to a UK citizen) and then many question ensued from there during his interview. To cut long story short he was denied on grounds that they don't think he has any intentions to leave the UK upon expiration of the wife's visa.
From this what I will advise is, if you declare you know someone other than the main applicant (talking of dependant applicants under tier 4), be ready to face questions that ensue afterwards as well as the consequences. On the other hand if you fail to declare you have a relative other than the main applicant, the issue is you might be caught and banned (that is if there's any way they will find out) but if you have never declared your relative in the UK in any application to the UK before, you know you won't be staying with them or relying on them for anything, and you know you don't have the requisite informations about them as per income, and the rest, just say NO. My two cents.
What If you have a brother that is presently studying at the same school you are also going to, for your study. And you have friends you have been staying with anytime you visit .Thou in another state. It's already in their record with your previous visit . How do you handle this?.

I don't think anyone has received CAS for SHU for January intake, I may be wrong though.

As for your other question, there are lots of students jobs over there.
Type in students jobs in Sheffield in Google and see for yourself.

dinawe: thanks so much av actually bin thinking about it to.i will go by ur advice will come and share d gud news soonest .

If you stated one month ago that you are not employed then i guess you should still say same because one month is a short time to make a decision to start a business which is already yielding some returns in your account. I my own opinion just leave it like that.
Since your husband is sponsoring, go with his statement and yours too. If it was on the reason of strong ties you were refused initially,believe me, leaving your husband and your daughter behind (especially your daughter), is enough STRONG TIE. My first appearance at the US embassy, my baby was 4 months old, i was giving a visa but my baby wasn't, (they used her as my STRONG TIE to return to my country, since i said i was only going for a 4 days conference).

So focus on getting all hospital documents (don't know if it's ok to say avoid MIHS and elpaso, grin though me, i am leaving for MIHS in 2 days time sha, lol!), make sure the statement is BEAUTIFUL enough (them like money), be confident, dress smart and pray for God's favour.
