Second round?

Just wondering if there are official second round offers in islington and Camden or if they are all just as and when offers now?
Now the accepting offer date has passed, when are we likely to hear about any resultant waiting list offers?

I've been through this a couple years ago and remember

  • there was a set date for second allocations
  • there was an official number to call (I remember it to be inside the email you got with your allocated school)

I did actually call them as we were on the waitlist for a school and they were very helpful. I also called a school directly and the registrar was very helpful too.

Good luck, and which schools are you thinking about?

We got Highbury fields but are on waiting list for Camden school for girls, parli, EGA and mary mags. Are now in a quandary which ones we would accept over HF! We are a pretty liberal thinking, non uniform, not too many rules type family. Our daughter is academic yet also loves sports, dance, drama etc. doesn’t help that we couldn’t tour Camden because of covid. Any intel welcome!

As and when spaces become available they will be allocated.

In Richmond Borough the second round of offers will go out by March 30th. They aren't telling anyone their waiting list positions until then.

It does take them a while to process the offer acceptances.

Camden does tell people their waiting list positions, right from offer day. You can call the admissions team daily if you want, and get your updated waiting list position. I wouldn't do this, the teams are lovely and helpful, but daily may push them to the limit.

Camden admissions team are great! We emailed them for updated waiting list positions and they responded the same day or the next.
The waiting lists moved a lot during April so hold tight.

We got a place! We’re all very happy!

That’s great @Mastermixy! Did you get your first choice?

Anyone know if Hackney are helpful / responsive? Was hoping we might get an offer for a place at Stokey for DS by today but nothing so far. I’ve just emailed them to find out where he is on the waiting list.
