I think that the forum is here for local people to support and discuss things with eachother, rather than to encourage spying and suspicion of one another.

ah yes but are they local people?

When I first read this thread I thought it might be a request from Southwark Council. But having read it through again I didn't think somehow the council would use such legally challenging terminology as 'stealing'.

Like other parents facing the worrying and completely nerve-jangling prospect of securing a school place, I too abhor people who use underhand tactics to gain places for their children. Personally, however, I think it is the full responsibility of Southwark Council to 'vet' who is / isn't playing the system fairly (from the outset of an application), rather than the role of an anonymous vigilante calling for action on the EDF.

It's probably just me, but I do find the incognito / cloak and dagger nature of this thread (setting up the handle 'edadmissions' - no history) just a little sinister.

Honestly, has our desperation to getting our children into local schools really stooped to such a low level as this thread? If so, how very sad it has all come to this.

Has cheating has become more acceptable than trying to stop a cheat?
