Sorry, I had not my mind, from conversations with friends, that Radnor was due early this week... but it may take a bit longer. Thanks @Everydayshuffln for the clarification.

Wishing all prompt and positive news!

Time is going by sssssssooooooo slowly!! I really hope Putney sends out their emails earlier then the 10th! The rest of the schools we applied to confirmed the 10th they would let us know.

Ewell Castle sent out offers last Friday as well as Guildford (we didn't apply for GHS but know people who did) and then CFC is due this week?

Thank you lovely 😘

Radnor said in an earlier email following the exam that they would be sending outcomes today. But in the email after the assessment day they said by the end of this week.

LoveMyADHD · 30/01/2023 10:57

@Twickmum1 is it always by email?

Lolakath19 · 30/01/2023 10:57

Morning all! good luck to all those waiting for results this week or going to interviews.
11 days left for us! did anyone call/email Putney to find out the results day?

VickiMent · 30/01/2023 11:00

I think they all usually try to have results by post but with all the strikes it will be email this year.

We are hoping for Claremont this week. I don't think it will be today but hopefully they will do early in the week since they have an offer holder event next week.

I asked on interview day and it seems they did not want to give exact day out. They said early mid Feb. But they were the same in regards to the results for the exam, the said early Jan, but it was the same as the previous year, the Friday of the first week of Jan. So I wonder if it will be the same for results this year (as last year). Someone said last year it was the Monday before the school break if I remember correctly, so that would be Feb 6th. Although, the teacher said early mid Feb, so that seems more like Feb 10th. LOL.

Twickmum1 · 30/01/2023 11:12

Sorry - that was in response to question about Radnor … outcomes to be emailed by end of this week.

LoveMyADHD · 30/01/2023 11:14

@Twickmum1 thank you!

Just curious does SPGS also send offers on the 10th?

Yes, 10th, by email.

@VickiMent Hope if arrives soon and it is a positive outcome!

Yes @VickiMent I agree, earlier this week from Claremont would be better in light of the Offer Holder day next week. 😬

QuiteAJourney · 30/01/2023 12:56

@EweCee Out of interest, have they told you already the time / date of the offer holders event?
I have been looking at the schools that we have applied for and the majority do not even mention when the offer holders event is, and in some cases, do not even refer to one at all.

OP posts:
momomamiko · 30/01/2023 13:02

Wetherby offers are coming in!

VickiMent · 30/01/2023 13:11

@QuiteAJourney we have a few dates for offer holders days but no timing. The dates were provided early on in the context of 'key dates to be aware of'. I don't think all schools hold offer holder days, I know two schools we are considering don't have them.

VickiMent · 30/01/2023 13:12

@momomamiko I hope it is good news!

QuiteAJourney · 30/01/2023 13:15

@momomamiko Wishing you all the best!

Is IPS one of them? I have not found any information on an offer holders day for them...

VickiMent · 30/01/2023 13:19

@QuiteAJourney we didn't look at IPS, but I am sure someone else will know.

EweCee · 30/01/2023 13:24

@QuiteAJourney no, no timings, just the date of the 8th. Not all schools do Offer Holders either as previously said; Ewell Castle haven't mentioned one and Surbiton seem to do a series of online events for offer holders, but no dates published yet.

QuiteAJourney · 30/01/2023 13:26

@VickiMent @EweCee Many thanks
