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

I only found this thread today, but wanted to let you know that Essex County Council offers are up! Good luck everyone.

Waiting in Leicester. I'm logged on but it's not telling me!!!

ChristianGreyIsAJackass · 16/04/2015 00:03

ChristianGreyIsAJackass · 16/04/2015 00:04

Good luck everyone

Good luck to everyone and hopefully a good omen first poster got first choice. (Thankfully I am not waiting)

TheEndOfTheWorldAsIKnowIt · 16/04/2015 00:07

Just logged in. We've got a place at our 2nd choice ?? happy because it's a lovely village school and I know a few children who go there and love it.
Sad because ds is really settled in the nursery class at our first choice and I know he will be sad to leave. It is also the school dd went to so feel like it's the end of an era.
Couldn't sleep because I was waiting to find out, now I know I can't sleep because I can feel adrenaline pumping.

nutelladipper · 16/04/2015 00:07

So want to know .No password reset email come through so going have wait emails.feel quite sick and probably get no sleep.

Donna1605 · 16/04/2015 00:17

Got first choice yay! Got high preference for second choice as well. Not sure what that means but chuffed to bits.

Well done everyone else who is happy!!

Purplepenguin555 · 16/04/2015 00:17

Server to busy to log in and check allocation for Essex how frustrating!!!!

zippyswife · 16/04/2015 00:19

Yes purple I was just about to say the same!

Pagerty · 16/04/2015 00:21

Cambridgeshire allocations are now on line and thankfully we got our first choice! Over the moon.

Thank you all for keeping me sane over the last week or so, good lunch to those yet to find out and I'm really sorry that some of you have been disappointed and I wish you luck with the rest of the process.

See you over in the when shall I start buying school uniform and how many shirts do we need threads Wink

Pagerty · 16/04/2015 00:22

Luck not lunch :)

ShadowStone · 16/04/2015 00:22

Have not got first preference Sad

Have been offered second preference, but not happy because the first preference was the only one we really wanted.

seafoodeatit · 16/04/2015 00:23

We got our second choice, I'm happy with it but still dissapointed, I really had my hopes set on our first choice school.

Good luck to those still waiting and congratulations to those who got their chosen school. Flowers Wine

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 16/04/2015 00:31

Our website wouldn't let me log on (overly busy I suspect), but received the e-mail at 00.16 confirming that DD has a place at our first choice school Grin.

So happy - and also relieved that I will never have to do this again!

Good luck to everyone else. Congratulations to those who have got what they wanted, commiserations to those who haven't.

goandshowdaddy · 16/04/2015 00:33

We got our second choice. Which is a bit awkward as DS1 is currently in Year 2 at our first choice. What do we do now? I certainly won't sleep tonight Sad

TiltedPenguin · 16/04/2015 00:35

so so relieved to get our first choice. I think we're probably the furthest away to get in as it was a bit of an outside shot. Already accepted! Grin

zippyswife · 16/04/2015 00:36

Still can't log on to Essex. It's going to be a late night.

Sorry to hear that some of you are disappointed.

Purplepenguin555 · 16/04/2015 00:38

zippyswife · 16/04/2015 00:39
