Moving school in year 13

I am thinking about moving school in start of year 13 because I don’t wanna travel 18 miles to school everyday. I chose this far distance school for year12 because before I couldn’t find any school providing art alevel around my area but now I recently found out that they are doing the art alevel. So I am considering if I should move to school which is closer to me. Also after I turn 18, I have to pay higher prices for train and my way to school take me more than hour which is affecting my punctuality. And also to consider, there is another school which is only 5 min away. So do you think this is valid reason to move school in start of year 13 and also will it really have negative impact on me?

I think you should move, yes. Since you're moving at the end/start of the year rather than in the middle it shouldn't affect you too much, although obviously you will have to adapt to the changes of moving to a new school. Commuting is definitely a valid reason to move schools, esp if you're travelling by train and prices will increase once you turn 18. Hope this helps!!

You would need to find another school or college that a) would accept you into Year 13, and b) with the same Exam Boards for the subjects that currently taking.
