Is anyone else waiting to hear what primary school their child has got into?

I'm biting my nails off here!

Lovethesea- I totally sympathise and felt the same way last year with DS1. I'm in King's Lynn and the nice schools were heavily oversubscribed so DS didn't get any of my choices. We were offered the worst school in town. Fortunately there were spaces at one of the village schools and it is a really amazing place. I was distraught on offer day but actually everything worked out rather well.
Just hoping DS2 gets a place at the same school- I think we are going to be ok but after last year I need it in writing.
Good luck and if its not what you're hoping check out all your options re appeals and alternatives with spaces.

Am waiting for Norfolk too, annoyingly have forgotten my password to log in online, have asked for it to be sent to me but hasn't come through yet, I'm guessing their servers are rather busy with people logging on!

Ah, got the right password eventually. No info online yet though!

Finally!

Just got the email and we have a place in our first place school. Christ on a bike it's been a long wait!

Good luck to everybody still waiting

Thanks Abby, a lot worse happens at sea I know.

1st choice is an infants school that takes 60 per year, R, Y1 and Y2.

2nd choice is a primary that has 86 pupils R to Y6.

Quite a difference!

Tally - we have no email, surname begins with W though? So maybe alphabetical....

Check with your local LA.

Last year all waiting-lists were handled by my LA, as of this year they are all handled by individual schools.

Another 24 hours to go...

refreshing email, outlook crashed, rerefreshing email

Another one in Norfolk here. Wondering if we might have the same 1st and 2nd choices Sea

1st in village starting with H

2nd in next village starting with L then M

Thanks for this, I'd forgotten all about it!

OK, I've a great line to take to an appeal, I know, I know, only if they make an error with distance etc.

But, I have eaten so much stress comfort eating chocolate, crisps and coke in the past couple of days I NEED my 1st choice to have a chance of walking it off (since choice 2 requires the car).

Convincing huh!?

Lovethesea we are in TSA. DS1 is already at our chosen school so we should be OK but I won't relax til I see it written down!

(Good luck!!)

Yep we're lucky really, DS1 (in Y1) must have been in a low birth rate year as if we had applied last year, we wouldn't have got in.

Apparently my friend who lives over the road has already received her email so they must be doing them in batches?

Phew.

First choice was lovely teeny tiny community CofE school with one form entry.
Luckily for us we live very close to the school, and your child doesn't have to be christened to get in

Other 2 choices within walking distance were ok but very large.

We got first choice, am so relieved for my very shy DD.I couldn't sleep last night.

I hope everyone gets what they want

We got in!!! I am genuinely shocked and bloody delighted. I am sooo relieved we can carry on building the good ties we've made over the past 2 years.

Oh good luck everyone. Half the village must have gone private or something.

Better call DH....

Yay Lovethesea :)

Still waiting...!

Still waiting too Meg. : $

I'm so happy for all the good news, but at the same time totally . This was supposed to be one of the pay-offs of leaving all our London friends. We weren't supposed to go through all of this and miss out by 160 sodding metres.

Ah, in that case not the same schools.

Nothing for us yet...

No email here yet.... Where is it?
