Home address fraud
Hi Team
I would like to know how one can stop someone from getting a place fraudulently in a grammar school by providing false address. Although they have a home in the catchment area they don't live there. Please advice.

Re: Home address fraud
Let the school/local authority know your concerns. Most are very keen to clamp down on fraud and will investigate. Give them whatever details you can.

When this should happen ideally
Re: Home address fraud
As soon as possible. Please don’t delay. Often schools are reluctant to withdraw places once a child has started school, but that does mean that another child was denied a school they should have got.

This is for next year place. Now only application for exam is submitted

Re: Home address fraud
Ah ok. In which case hold off for now, but it would be worth dropping the school/LA an email about your concerns about which address they have used once the CAFs have gone in. Assuming they’re haven’t moved in by then and admissions criteria allow for that.
