Hi All,
Here's the official response from nominet....
In order to apply for a .sch you will need to have the geographical area
as part of the domain name as prestonprimary.sch.uk is not a .sch domain
name. As in the .stockton.sch.uk meets the requirements for showing the
geographical area part of the domain name.
The domain name therefore needs to read schoolname.geographicalarea.sch.uk
Hope this helps.
