Kingsdale waiting lists

Is anyone able to share their experience of movement on either the appropriate banding or scholarship waiting list? Trying to work out our chances.

Which WL(s) were you on? Which band were you on the appropriate banding WL? What WL number were you on national offers day? When were you offered a place (if at all)? How many places did you move on the WL between March and September?

Our child has a a full scholarship and is in the low teens on the scholarship WL and mid hundred on the appropriate banding WL. No idea what band they are in.

I've read the previous threads and realise there is one of these nearly every year! But am hoping for some up-to-date feedback about how the WL moved, ideally for last year's entry.

Thanks all

From what I've heard of from last year, low teens on the scholarship list is a good chance of an offer in the first shakedown - I know someone who had that (might even have been high teens or higher).

DD actually got a place on offer day - she did have a full music scholarship but we don't know whether she got in on the scholarship list or the banding list. We've turned it down for a independent, so that's at least one place - although I have no idea which list!
