School admission (reception) - are you happy with the school you had been offered?

[Gulee]

A friend of mine whose daughter is going to start reception this September had been worrying all the time about the school place she will be offered.

She gave me a call yesterday and said "A PLACE FROM OUR FIRST CHOICE! I can't believe it". She is so happy, eventough the schools of her both children are absolutely on opposite sides. They are going to manage it somehow. She had been told, that only 5% of children got place from their first choice.

What are your feeling? Are you happy? Did you get the place you wanted? I just wanted to know how many of us got the place.
