When it comes to applying for primary schools, is Manchester City Council preferable to deal with as opposed to the other two mentioned? We are trying to decide where to live for one academic year. We are from the US. Is oversubscription an issue everywhere or is it particularly bad within the city limits? I also see that having more options within the city may be better. Our rental budget is about 2500 per month. We will need to commute to the area just southeast of the Denton Island and the University of Manchester, the university being a 2nd priority.
