Jinxy - if its the same as our borough last year it will be in the letter you receive tomorrow

TerrysNo2 · 17/04/2013 17:09

we got our third choice as expected, I'm pleased we've accepted SB offer on our house now and will be moving. now for the stress of an in year application!!

bellamysbride · 17/04/2013 17:09

Does anyone know when the emails go out?

Goodwordguide · 17/04/2013 17:10

We've moved out of the borough to Suffolk but we were in Putney so had to apply via Wandsworth and weren't sure we'd get the place at the new
House.

Glad you got your first choice fuck, best of luck to everyone else!

LittlePickleHead · 17/04/2013 17:11

Not sure Bella, I haven't had one yet. Can you log in to e-admissions as the results are up?

TheNinjaGooseIsOnAMission · 17/04/2013 17:13

not had an email yet but results were on eadmissions already

EasyFromNowOn · 17/04/2013 17:14

Our council declines to send emails and doesn't give a date when they send the letters either, just 'middle of April' Hmm so everyone is waiting for someone else to hear!!

Pyrrah · 17/04/2013 17:14

Come on Southwark, press that button!

Feel sick - it's a dead cert that I won't get 4/6 choices and quite possible I won't get the others either and the only not over-subscribed school in the area is not over-subscribed for a very good reason!

Can't find my password and up to my ears in tea. Now where was that safe place?....

Lozario · 17/04/2013 17:30

We got our 3rd choice. Which am happy with - didn't think we'd have a chance with 1st choice now but we are realistically in with a shot on waiting list. So either way it's ok. Phew!

JinxyCat · 17/04/2013 17:31

@LittlePickle - thanks will wait for the letter then.
@Bllaamysbride - I reset my password with the link on the eAdmissions site and got a text about 30secs later that let me get in

Pyrrah · 17/04/2013 17:32

Yay Lozario! Good luck with the waiting list.

Still waiting here and biting nails...

Lovethesea · 17/04/2013 17:33

Lexy - open!!

bellamysbride · 17/04/2013 17:34

Thanks jinxy will do that.

FuckThisShit · 17/04/2013 17:34

Lozario that's good news and even better that your waiting list chance should increase too.

Good luck to those still waiting and to those who are appealing, or on waiting lists I wish you great luck with those too.

Pyrrah · 17/04/2013 17:36

Second choice - thank goodness!

Onwards with the waiting list application.

TinyPanic · 17/04/2013 17:40

Does anyone know if the Surrey results are online yet?

TerrysNo2 · 17/04/2013 17:41

tiny Surrey are up

TinyPanic · 17/04/2013 17:41

Gulp, thanks!

FuckThisShit · 17/04/2013 17:41

That's great Pyrrah, really pleased for you. Fingers crossed for waiting list.

If it's any consolation, when my older three (now 19, 18 and 16) started I moved when DD2 was mid way through her second term in reception. A place came up for her at the school that was on our doorstep (Honeywell, an amazing school) and she literally got the place offered on the Thursday and started on the Monday. DS then automatically got a reception place for the September and, brilliantly, a Year 3 place came up for DD1 then too.

I was talking to the (same) head of Honeywell last week and she told me that this term already has 5 spaces in Reception and 9 in Years 1&2. So they do move, and it's not just the odd one. So, really good luck with you for that.

totmum · 17/04/2013 17:41

Is merton result up?

LexyMa · 17/04/2013 17:43

Lovethesea ooh you're naughty... but I called DH (on the train home) and asked if he wants to read it with me, and he does. I can wait another hour, it's been three months!!

Pyrrah · 17/04/2013 17:45

Wow, that is amazing for Honeywell - I think that is the most oversubscribed school in the borough.

The one I'm after has very high mobility - according to both HT and Ofsted - so I should have a good chance eventually. Will probably be after start of term though when most parents won't be so interested in moving schools.

Hopefully if we get that choice it will also make someone else very happy to get our place at this school.

(Uniform is at least the same colours too Grin)
