AIBU to point out that out ways to improve chances of getting the school you want?
- Apply on time, using your own address by 31 Oct
- Put the school you really want top
That's it. 
Then fill up the form with other schools you like or could put up with, ensuring there is at least one school you are as guaranteed as you can be that you will get in.
Things that won't help:
- only listing one school
- listing the same school multiple times
- only listing outstanding schools you have no hope of getting into.
Other things you could have done or have been luck on that would have given you more options but are too late now:
- find religion / meet religious criteria even if you don't believe
- be rich / well off enough to pay for private (flying pigs)
- move house
- have a clever child (a bit hard to guarantee)
Do not lie. It isn't a victimless issue. It is depriving a child who according to the rules should get a place over yours. Plus councils are getting much better at spotting things.
