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

I'm biting my nails off here!

pyrrah huzzah! Good luck with the WL. We can start a WL support thread!!

Lexy, but I have to go out in a bit!! Post quickly after he's home

First choice here!

Am delighted. Under the new system adopted by Tower Hamlets this year, nobody had much of a clue if they'd get in or not unless they had a sibling.

Right. I'm off to get drunk

ok ok Lovethesea I will as soon as I open it. I might even open it when we pick him up at the station, and if it's #1 we can drive past the school on the way back...

Wandsworth outcome is live on eAdmissions portal - we got our first choice.

4th choice here. I was surprised at how gutted I was not to feel excited. Which is stupid because (a) it's not about me, (b) it's a good school that we can walk to, and (c) he will know at least one person there. I just didn't love it like some of the others and wasn't/am not sure it's the right place for him. But he'll be fine.

Fingers crossed Lexy

First choice here -

Good luck to everyone still waiting!

3rd choice. No idea how we got there but not 1 or 2, and I've never even seen it. Never considered it really though it's supposed to be ok.
How do I get onto waiting lists?

The email had been sitting in the junk mail since half four!
First choice!

First choice here but was fairly sure we'd get in so not really a big surprise.

DS and his best friend live next door, we put down the same order but we got second choice and they have first.. Not sure if I should tell DS yet.. I'm irrationally upset!

notcitrus, details should be on the letter you will get probably tomorrow

First choice ? phew, I cried too .

Got our first choice. Was shocked as small faith school in London borough only taking 30.

scortja - I presume you were both just distance not siblings etc?

woo! and phew! first choice! big sigh of relief.

Scotja - I might not tell him just yet and get put on the waiting list. You must have been close.

But it does depend if his friend will know and talk about it.

Scortja - if it is on distance then you will almost certainly be offered a place from a waiting list before Sept.

straight after the offer email I also got the mail about the schools which are expanding in the local authority - on continuing interest basis so you can apply even if you got one of your "choices"... doesn't apply to us but I'm very happy with the Herts CC communications.

I got a text to say they'd sent the email but still no email

Spam folder?

Nope, checked that too.

Glad I checked the website, I'd be in bits now otherwise!

Weird!
