When offer day comes in March is it possible to get offers from all secondary schools or do you only get one offer based on your order of preference?

For state schools, you get one offer.

The exception may be in the first year of a free school setting up, it may do its admissions seperately to the LEA so it's possible to get one offer from them and another from the LEA. Otherwise, you get one state school offer.

Thank you! I'm just having a think about what order I put the schools in as some are pretty close in what they offer.

Put the schools in order of your preference as you will be offered the first in your list in which you have a place.

On paper I prefer my 2nd choice school but my first choice is the one that works better in terms of travel and in terms of the family. (I still really liked my first choice) My 3rd is my banker.
