WELCOME TO PART 3!!

Previously…

PART 1 started by Oceane11plus in July 2020 for the SW London Girl’s 11+ 2021 cohort (pandemic year).
PART 2 continued the journey (exam pandemic panic).

Both Part 1 & 2 quickly reached the MN quota of 1000 posts!

Will PART 3 be our final episode? Keep supportively posting as we make our final decisions on offers, WL movement & starting Year 7 (hopefully post-pandemic)...

Hello everyone - can't believe we are on our third thread! Thanks for starting @MumsRule20

We've got an online offer holders event at our first choice tomorrow, then just going to wait for state offers on the off chance we think we're making a massive mistake when we see our allocation, then accept on Tuesday I think.

Gah - School Blazer does our first choice's uniform, but when I was looking it was all a bit odd and I couldn't even check prices without registering, and to do that I needed things like DD's house, which I assume we won't know for ages! Good to know they do do sales though!!

@Tr0ubled its national offers day so yes.. I believe so. Most frustratingly London's don't tend to come out until 17.00 (sometimes a little earlier) so the admissions team won't get to work on any declines until Tuesday I imagine.

Whoop we’ve had some great insight into first choice school feeling very positive today.

Hello, @WarmAndco3y and @southwestlondonmum Glad you made it over and love that we have all travelled this road together the last few months and lots of new names recently popping up to say how supportive they have been finding all our chat. Be interesting to see how next week turns out for many.

@Flossitea Sorry, my announcement on Part 2 interrupted your helpful recommendation re: uniform supplier sale for LEH (I corrected the company name for you). So, I have copied it in here:

Just had an email from SchoolBlazer (uniform supplier) saying they’re doing a 30% off sale on blazers, trousers and skirts starting next Monday. We’re going to LEH which sells uniform through SchoolBlazer so I will be stocking up! Thought I’d let you all know in case you’re LEH-bound, or your school uses SchoolBlazer

Hopefully, this proves useful to those who decided on LEH and any other schools they supply to :)

Marking my place here too!

@Stircrazyschoolmum do all the state school places come out in Monday?

Stircrazyschoolmum · 26/02/2021 15:18

Whoop whoop!

Cheering on all those waiting for grammar places on Monday and holding tight to those on the waiting lists.. hoping this thread is full of positivity and concerns shift to school uniforms and commutes!

southwestlondonmum · 26/02/2021 14:47

Yes thank you @MumsRule20 for part 3! Fingers crossed that the WLs will start to move soon! Let's hope it will be lucky and happy finish for all our DDs!

WarmAndco3y · 26/02/2021 14:41
