Is Monday! Find out if my son gets into the schools I have selected. I'm not hopeful though, the school that is closest to us (people park outside my house for sports days etc it is 1 min down the road) he is not in the catchment for!!! We live steps out of the catchment, and that's why I'll have such a hard time accepting a rejection. If we were further out, it would somehow be easier to bear.

I am a single mum, relying on my mum who can't drive, getting him to school (yet I know they will not consider this). I applied on the basis of my son's delayed speech, deeming it a medical reason. I was certainly clutching at straws... I am just sooo scared! I so want this school place, it's the school me and my siblings attended and it's just an amazing school.

The other schools are much further away, I don't know how we will get him there. I work and study, mum can't drive. I don't know how much I'd expect to pay for a childminder to take him/pick him up? But I am broke anyway!

Anyone else as scared as me?!

We find out monday too and although I have a sibling already in the school I won't rest easy until I read the words that my dd has a place.
Lots of luck to you, it is such a stressful process isn't it .

I find out monday and stressed out my mind!!!! DD2 is VERY unlikely to get into the same school as DD1 as we are out of catchment so don't have sibling priority:( LEA have warned me of this so i'm not stressing unnecessarily!

I've literally gone through several bottles of wine since last week just to be able to get a full nights sleep! Its so stressful! Can't believe i'm having to hope for 2nd choice!

We are Lancashire and find out online at 6pm!!! You??

Oooh from Chester, how did you find out what time they go up? I have no idea?

Haha wine sounds good! George is an only child so no hope of sibling priority :S Ahhh it is so depressing!

The LEA had written in the booklet that offers would be posted 2nd class on monday or could be viewed monday evening - i emailed them as evening was far to vague for me! I shall be sat next to PC all day in anticipation!

Ohhh must be the same, thank you for telling me or I would have been at the comp as soon as clock struck 12 :D
