Does anyone know if or when the FHSS 11+ waitlist usually moves?

My daughter was on the wl last year, we called and emailed and wrote letters and still did not manage to secure a spot. However last year might have been more difficult because they ranked highly in the times list in 2023. This year it is back to its normal spot. In the end she went to her second choice and is so happy and loved it and I am really glad she ended up at the school she is at.

It does move eventually...but it takes time. You can look at the last years thread to see. It eventually moves and people will start to post WL spots have opened.

Hello, I had just posted on a different thread that we declined a place from FHSS this morning. Not sure how much they over offer, but I'd imagine there will be some movement after half term. Fingers crossed your daughter gets a spot.
