Thought it would be nice to start a support thread on here about the wait for our DC getting into secondary schools. Anyone else glad the tests are all over?

Can't believe bastard website down. Blood pressure dangerously high at this stage.

Maybe depends on council - in Hounslow you have to log in. I got as far as username and password just now but then it crashed again.

Anyone for a game of I spy while we wait?

lazarusb · 01/03/2011 17:23

We are in East Sussex, in a town where secondary education is going through a massive upheaval but, happily, dd got her first choice so we are very happy. Good luck everyone Smile

squatbottom · 01/03/2011 17:23

elevenplusexams site is down as well...

lilacisinlove · 01/03/2011 17:24

So, if you get what you want, how are you celebrating? I feel a large box of Maltesers coming on...

But then I don't drink, so chocolate is my only option!

GhostInTheBackOfYourHead · 01/03/2011 17:24

Fuck, ExDH just had an email saying DD did not get into any of the 6 schools we put down.

Poor DD.

What can we do now?

lilacisinlove · 01/03/2011 17:24

:) for you lazarus

CupAndSaucer · 01/03/2011 17:25

feeling slightly hysterical....I've got to go out! Shock

Better save the Wine for when I get back!

MadameDefarge · 01/03/2011 17:25

thank you thank you thank you thank you!

Its been two years of missing my boy during the week and biting my tongue. His school is fab, and I had to spring him from other one. But it would have meant a two hour trip each day, which was out of the question for a little boy with severe dyspraxia. Hence living with Exp during the week.

OMG! I am so happy!

lilacisinlove · 01/03/2011 17:25

Wow, ghost...it must say something about that in the email. She has to have a place somewhere!

CupAndSaucer · 01/03/2011 17:26

Yay Lazarusb Grin

Sorry to hear that Ghost. Can you appeal?

melezka · 01/03/2011 17:26

OYBBK - I was saying it admiringly!

Something beginning with W?

3kids4sale · 01/03/2011 17:27

Just got email, was offered out 5th Choice, am sure DD will be happy, but we will go on waiting list

CupAndSaucer · 01/03/2011 17:27

Grin madameDefarge - great news!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/03/2011 17:28

Brilliant MadameD you must be so very happy :)

Excellent Lazarus :)

Ghost - I'm sorry. I think its is waiting lists and phone Admissions tomorrow. They have to educate your dd.

no news here the gumpy eyed ratty people.

GORGEOUSX · 01/03/2011 17:29

MadameDefarge THAT'S BLOODY FANTASTIC. Crikey, you had a lot riding today. Grin I've opened the wine .... cheers! Wine Grin

LadyWellian · 01/03/2011 17:29

Jeez, Ghost, that's awful. Hope something comes up on waiting.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 01/03/2011 17:29

Grin melezka - grabs Wine back off Gorgeous and hands it over.

LadyWellian · 01/03/2011 17:29

Right, I'm off home now. Try not to fill up the thread before I get there - it might take a couple of hours!
