SW London grammar and private year 7 entry 2024 - Continued

No Ibstock email here so am assuming it’s a no or at best WL

Hampton 13+ also just out.

Finally, SPGS offer. Phew!

Yes Ibstock place are out just got an offer as well 🙂one more to go😅

Thanks @Louise78100 !
Emanuel sounds super tough this year. Lots of dd’s mates getting offers at Dulwich and kings and Jags and not there.

We received an offer via the post and no email. I know St J follow up with an email at the end of the day. So hopefully you will hear then, if the post has let you down today!

@travelturtle Just got LU offer will check Hamptons portal thank you

We’ve got an offer from Ibstock but a waiting list place from Emanuel sadly. It’s our first choice. Any insights into Emanuel waiting list movements? Do we keep any hopes?

@Marylebonedad congrats to your DD on fantastic results. In the past two years, most people on SHHS and CLSG waitlists got offers. Advocate and if you’re at a prep, ask your school to advocate too.

Agreed re NHEHS and FHRP. Both schools are great and produce excellent results. Also think about where DD cohorts would live, and how easy it is for DD to get there and back on early mornings, after school events etc. Both are very happy schools and produce excellent results - your two WL schools too.

Congrats to your DD and all the best.

Hi received offer from Kew House

just received Ibstock offer

Agree absolutely morningt0n about releasing offers you are sure you won’t take, to help those on WL.

And if anyone has applied for state but will now definitely choose a private offer, it would be good to withdraw your state application (ideally before 1 March when state offers go out). Although I just logged on to our council website and can’t see an easy way to do this…

Anyone got an email from St John’s? Post has arrived with nothing in it from them.

Congratulaitons !! so i iguess that confirms that they send it over batches over the entire day since others got it 11.06am?

what is the first letter of the surname please just to see if the laphabetical order has any reference?

LU email for us came out 20 mins ago

@Wondermumof4 Thank you so so much!! We’re beyond thrilled - have you had news on DC? X

DS has completely blown me away and received all offers inc Hampton, KGS,Emanuel.

Congratulations to all those with offers and to those with waitlists for their top schools I’m sure everything will work out and I know your DCs will end up at the right school for them.

Thank you all for keeping me sane. You’re a wonderful bunch, and your DCs will have great outcomes just seeing how much you care about their education.

Well done all esp to all the DCs x

@Wondermumof4 yes I believe they do keep it short in the hope/expectation of offering off it. Remember when state results come out on 1 March it will all shift as a number will also have got places at grammars and local outstanding schools

Well done to all DCs (whatever the outcome). Congrats to those who have offers.
Fingers crossed to those still waiting (we are on the last one).

This is such a supportive thread. Let's try an be as supportive to each other as we can outside too.
For any with multiple offers (which is amazing) please let's all think about some of the DCs that are sitting on waitlists and all the uncertainty that brings. I am not saying rush any decisions (way too important and it's right to take whatever time needed to come to a conclusion), but when a decision is made, let's try to get those places back in the system as soon as we can to help out those who are desperately waiting for them. It's a cruel process, as parents there is little we can do about it. In this small way we can help. So I say, let's help when we can.

And Yes from LU too. A great journey with DD!

taking into account some of the other posts said about offer at 11am , does this mean us might not get an offer? or they reliase that in blocks?

Still waiting for LU

We are still waiting to hear from LU

can please anyone tell us if they still waiting from Latymer Upper since it looks like is the only school that we have not received results ?

has anyone got a no iffer email at all? it looks several people still waiting for LU?

Hi all - congrats to all the children who’ve worked so hard.

as we sift through the results, I realise how little we still know and would welcome some inputs / advice.

our daughter is in at NHEHS and FHRP and waitlist at CLSG (probably her top choice) and SHHS.

between NHEHS and FHRP, there’s not much in it from a commute standpoint (FHRP is close and we are directly on the NHEHS bus route) but wife and I are leaning NHEHS because of the academic results and the more suburban environment, but I’m not sure either are good reasons for that bias. FHRP has an offer holders morning, NHEHS doesn’t which is frustrating but would welcome any inputs either way.

on the waitlists, any experience with CLSG and SHHS? The mail from CLSG was awfully nice and very encouraging but I don’t want to get our daughters hopes up when it’s her first choice, especially when she as other great choices.
