I don`t think there will be a problem, from what I`ve heard from others this
is always the case.

I agree with Tracey - we rolled up to our school of choice mid November and even though there were less than 5 weeks of the school year left they kitted our girls out with uniform then and there and were happy for them to start immediately! :D

Private schools have waiting lists ... depending on area. Some privates you put the kids name down from birth...you do not just rock up!

And state schools...have areas...so for the popular ones you need to be living in area to get a place.

Actually just like the UK!
