Is anyone else dying to find out which school they have been allocated?

This is for my PFB which makes it extra difficult for me :(

I can't talk about it in real life as it starts off as a nice casual conversation ending with some delusions of grandeur PFB nonsense Blush

Hi, our system is currently unavailable for "essential maintenance." We're advised to check at 9am. It's going to be a long night...

Leviticus congratulations, which county are you?

MrsChocolateBrownie · 15/04/2015 20:03

Wishing you all still waiting good luck and hope you get an early email/letter.
We applied for ds1 last year and I remember how nerve racking this final wait is - sadly we had to wait until the evening!

Justtrying · 15/04/2015 20:06

Gutted, not got our first choice which is village school less than half a mile away, but only takes 25. Have got our second choice which is best of a bad bunch and in special measures. 2.5miles away. will be appealing as dd has a health condition.

Any tips gratefully received as this is all new to me, not the best news as leave for work a 5 am and away for 6 days.

Oh no, I'm really sorry to hear that Just, distance is a very good standing on appeal from what I know because it takes a lot to justify sending a child so far.

Gileswithachainsaw · 15/04/2015 20:12

Are we all go then. join my thread in chat and say go

MrsGannicus · 15/04/2015 20:13

Must be something in the air giles. My kids didn't want to go to bed either. Can probably sense my nerves!

So sorry just. There are some admissions experts on here. I think tiggytape recommended starting a separate thread outside of this one so they can see it and advise you on your appeal. Good luck!

Almostapril · 15/04/2015 20:13

Just trying I advise you to start a new thread about not getting a desired place. This thread is almost full anyway. I am sure lots will join you in the morning and Tiggy and the other experts will be along to advise everyone on next moved.
Does it say where you are on the list or the cut off distance (of other helpful info?)

Almostapril · 15/04/2015 20:16

Just - if you don't have the info, email requesting it. Include in your email confirmation that you want to stay on the waiting list for village school too.

AnnieLewis · 15/04/2015 20:17

God - I can't believe some of you have found out already! Congrats! Where are you geographically?

I think ours is going to make us wait til tomorrow evening - can't stand it anymore! Just want to know!

Fingers crossed and good luck to everyone still waiting!

Ayse1980ayse · 15/04/2015 20:18

So sorry justtrying
Hopefully someone can advise you and you get the place you want on appeal.

Twine88 · 15/04/2015 20:19

Congrats to all those who have had success! So sorry Justtrying good luck with the appeal! We are going to need a new thread soon!

MTWTFSS · 15/04/2015 20:19
