Kent - secondary offer day - timing?

Nervously anticipating tomorrow! KCC says it's after 4pm for the email, but they said this for the 11+ results too and in reality they came much earlier in the day. Anyone in Kent know if it actually is 4pm, or do they start coming earlier?

Does anyone know any parents from previous years who have said what time they got their offer?

Gosh that's quite a bit lower than last year for outer area - I know a couple of people at school who are going to be happy with that this year!

The overall Kent test scores this year are lower compared to previous years, and the number of people achieving full marks has also decreased significantly. So, I think the cut off scores at Judd is reasonable.

I'm still waiting the official email from Kent Council but the Judd school has released the cut off scores for this year already.

I’m Kent, too & rather nervously waiting. Can’t believe it’s 4pm
when some counties already sent theirs out. Kmt.
