Anyone in Surrey waiting to hear about school placements?

[wools]

I understand that we will be able to log on to Surrey County Council website from 3pm today to find out which school we have been allocated. I'm hopeful for DD to get our first choice school as she has two siblings there already but until I see it confirmed I feel a little anxious. Anyone else?

[dickcheeseandthecrackers]

Oh yes me too. Fingers crossed for our first preference. I bet thewebsite crashes under the pressure.

[wools]

Good luck Dickcheese. Only 8 more hours........

[ABouttoeatalltheeggsGIRL]

Me too! Not v worried as should have sibling priority, but we live in Hants and the school's in Surrey so think we'll be waiting for a letter rather than logging on - have waited this long though so am sure another day won't matter

[dickcheeseandthecrackers]

It's like the slowest day ever!

[Carameli]

yes me, seems like ages away!!! I have been digging the garden, wedding, planting, hoovering , cleaning like mad, playing football with the boys anything to stop thinking about it.
Hope we all get our 1st choices :)

[Carameli]

just read your message Wools, I know how you feel, even with a sibling I am still really nervous :)

[MiraNova]

Waiting too - we should be ok, based on previous years' intake, but you never know, and I am a bit nervous just in case. Is it a high birth year does anyone know?

[Carameli]

I never seem to know these things so have no idea :)

[Carameli]

I am waiting for St Joseph's Epsom who are others waiting for if you don't mind saying here?

[Rosenotinyorkshire]

Horrible waiting. Im in Reigate where there is never enough primary school places. Gulp. Have tried not to listen to the various rumous going round about how many siblings etc. It is nail bitingly tense. Bet we wont be able to log on at 3pm because of the sheer numbers

[HairyMaclary]

Caramel, you must live close to us! For v complicated reasons we have applied to an out of area school which we will probably get but things have changed and I will need to put ds2 on the local waiting lists. It's never simple!

[LondonSuperTrooper]

Yes I'm also waiting to hear which school my DS will going on to.

I'm pretty confident that I will be getting my first choice.... however I will be going onto the waiting list as I want either my second or even third choice school!

[Carameli]

Ashtead, where are you HairyMaclary ?

[HairyMaclary]

Ewell

[LondonSuperTrooper]

Carameli, I'm just round the corner from you...... I'm in Bookham!

[Carameli]

we are all very close, wow.

[dickcheeseandthecrackers]

I'm waiting for weybridge schools, uber competitive here too. Today is dragging along!

[LondonSuperTrooper]

I know I feel the same... roll on 3pm!

I should also be recieveing a text as I signed up for the mobile thingy.

[Carameli]

no-one else brave enough to say what they are hoping for? Do you think it will jinx the outcome :)

[LondonSuperTrooper]

Not at all Carmeli.

My first choice is Polesden Lacey Infant School.

[Itsjustafleshwound]

Carameli - we are in the same area - I am waiting to hear about St Martin's for DS (I hope!!!)

There are some real horrible rumours and scaremongering around ...

[Carameli]

ignore rumours !!! ignore rumours!!!

[CrispyTheCrisp]

LondonSuperTrooper - i went there in the 70's, it is lovely

[LondonSuperTrooper]

It's still a lovely lovely school.

Thinking of not accepting it though and going onto the waiting list for a 4-11 school instead......

Ashtead mums, hope you get your first choices especially with all the new housing in the area. I know quite a few people who bypassed Barnett Wood and applied to West Ashtead instead.

[Rosenotinyorkshire]

an hour and a half to go.Even if all is well with my dc am dreading speaking to friends as school is always so over subscribed there are certainly going to be some disappointed people. Gulp
