The education department phased out the sibling criteria so he was not offered any of his preferences.

She is now tutoring him at home until such time a place is available to him at his first choice.

In a borough such as this most families consist of more than one child, so you could potentially have three siblings attending three different schools in the borough.

This was initially instigated to stop families moving into the borough, getting one child into a school then moving out of borough and getting the remaining siblings into the same school.
