National Offer Day Waiting Room

I'm so nervous. I only put one choice down and we are out of catchment.

Our catchment school is really very awful, it's been requires improvement for 4 years now. Only a handful of children actually go there - the kids too far out to get a place someplace else (us probably) and the few children in this village and the next whose parents don't seem to mind (they went to the school themselves). Honestly I'd Home school before I'd send him there.

I don't know what I'll do if we don't get our 1st (and only) choice. Appeal I guess.

Good luck everyone, particularly @gazelda

It’s tough when your kid doesn’t get their choice.

Our LA website has crashed. I went on earlier and had to change my password, but now you can't get on.

I feel very anxious-keep checking the council website but nothing yet!

Nothing in Bath. I keep logging on just in case they come out early, soooo nervous!!!

Nothing in Oxfordshire.

I've logged on but no different, we are in a London Borough so I know from PP's that it will come tomorrow but my nerves are shot and I'm being impatient! After tomorrow the real nerves start though! Not long to go! Good luck to us all! Fingers crossed for everyone!

Any know whether we can log on in West Sussex? Or do we have to wait for an email?

Offers out here ( Stockport) , I’m not impacted but I’ve seen posts on my Facebook tonight. Good luck all, I was in this boat 9 years ago.

Trying to keep myself busy. I've been logging on online to the council portal all day but it just keeps saying no messages yet.
Aaaagh my nerves have gone now!

Off to get a shower and sort washing for tomorrow to kill some time. Dh thinks I'm bonkers

Does anyone know when Warrington release their offers? We've applied for Bluecoat and Belvedere, feel sick

Admission lady here.
Our offers are available to log on and view from midnight.
Emails start to go out from 5am. Bear in mind the amount of email traffic being sent out as parents are getting offers. Some email providers will reject them and the system keeps pushing them out.
If you can log on and view it thats the best thing to do. Some emails won't arrive til later tomorrow.
Good luck everyone 😊

Oh MrsCastle Ive just been talking myself out of doing the same (you know, just in case theyve sent the emails out a day early by mistake).

Waiting here. I may have already logged in to check the online system this evening. Surprisingly enough, no offer yet .

My DD is desperate to get into our first choice, but it's popular and we're out of catchment. 2nd choice is out catchment school, which would be ok, but DD would be disappointed and I'm not sure if any of her close friends will be going there.

DD is also very likely to have a diagnosis of coeliac confirmed in the next week or so... Not the end of the world, but quite a big upheaval for her and she's quite anxious about it. If she also has to come to terms with not getting her first choice school, I think we may be in for an emotional few weeks.

Feeling despondent as we are unlikely to get any of our choices and will no doubt default to our requires improvement catchment. Recently named as one of the worst in he uk. We’ve remained positive and ds is fine with whichever school he gets. just not sure I can cope with the gloating and terrible parent comments that certain so called friend will be bombarding us with because we didn’t follow their lead and remortgage ourselves way beyond our means, beg, steal and borrow like they’ve done.

I've realised what I am nervous for. A number of his friends have put it as 1st choice so I am hoping they get in as well as they are applying out of area. (We moved last year but kept him at the school)

Wowww I thought it was just me feeling nervous tbh I've been feeling nervous since I'd submitted the form. Not sure if I'll get the email at midnight or jus before 5pm but hoping for 1st choice at a Catholic girls school 🙏🤞

Wow Keepingthewormsquiet that’s an awesome score! My daughter is waiting for Nonsuch, tiffin girls and then our local secondary girls sch. Don’t think she’ll have got tiffin. Scored 290 nonsuch and we are just IC according to their map at open evening and my measurement but paranoid in case I got it wrong or they dispute it!

LMRSMYM - London allocations come out at 5pm on the 1st. The emails can take hours to arrive so it's best to login. You login on the same website and account you made the online application on.

I have no idea about paper applications and those are the only people to get a letter from the Council Most people apply online these days. You'll later get a letter from the school you get.

We are also hoping for Nonsuch (with Wallington Girls as second choice and Tiffin Girls third). DD got a score of 330 for Nonsuch/Wallington. We're out of catchment. We are pretty confident about Nonsuch, but it will be nice to have it confirmed.

It was much worse when we were waiting for my sons' allocations, because the Sutton grammars won't tell you their scores and we had no idea where they were in the rankings.

Poking my head in. DS should get into the local grammar school, unless something has seriously gone wrong, but it's still nerve wracking!

For nonsuh and tiffin do we receive letter tomorrow and if it’s online can we check it tonight and where to check the results ???

Snap-we are in the same situation! Is it midnight we can find out? Are you hoping for SH or WH?
