Edinburgh parents who have appealed for their children to move to a school outwith their catchment have been left furious after delays saw pupils miss transition days.
Edinburgh Council has apologised to parents who have lodged an appeal and say this is the first year a delay in the appeal process has happened.
One parent, whose son attends Gilmerton Primary School, has appealed for him to switch to Liberton High School instead of his catchment at Gracemount High School - but says he already missed vital transition days to make the process smoother.
