@peppermintblue does it say applied? or declined. We have some friends with surname starting in M that does not have the update yet.

Our surname is earlier then M...but still just says applied. Do you know anyone that says declined? Or just offers and applied still? I am so nervous

Congrats btw!! :)

FriendlyMom · 07/02/2023 11:28

It probably just takes time!

SamPoodle123 · 07/02/2023 11:28

Peppermintblue · 07/02/2023 10:53

No offer for us unfortunately, and no waiting list. Super disappointing as this was our first choice

Does it actually say no offer? Or applied? Ours says applied...

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 11:29

I am not sure what @Peppermintblue have.
I know some people with offered and some with applied still
May depend on bursary / scholarship as well

Hope it is not a glitch

Peppermintblue · 07/02/2023 11:29

I've assumed Friday for Ibstock too - but not sure why as there's no mention of a date on any of their emails. Admissions going to answerphone.

I am sure if yours says offered you have an offer :) Congratulations! I hope they are just making their way through the list for offers and there is still a chance for us. I am nervous!

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 11:36

Fingers crossed for everyone for some good news !

SamPoodle123 · 07/02/2023 11:39

It just switched to offer right in front of my face!! Lets hope this is real and not a glitch!!! :) So exciting and thanks @Lolakath19 for the heads up!!!

Sass22 · 07/02/2023 11:41

mine only says pending.

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 11:43

@SamPoodle123 Well done!!!

Sass22 · 07/02/2023 11:44

you think it depends on scholarship!! Well done to all

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 11:45

@Lolakath19 @SamPoodle123 Congratulations! It looks like your DDs are the proud recipients of a PHS offer!

Yes sports.

FriendlyMom · 07/02/2023 11:50

It updated positively for us too, but we did not ask for a scholarship. Hang in there, @Sass22!
Congratulations! And fingers crossed for those who are still waiting! - it clearly takes time for the system to update!
Now that @Lolakath19 prompted the idea of checking openapply, I was wondering if G&L and CLSG were registered there. Does anyone remember?

The system may be updating in order of date applied.

Hitoyou · 07/02/2023 11:55

We got a Putney offer too - you could knock me down with a feather ! Amazing, can't wait to tell her !

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 11:57

@FriendlyMom congrats
CLSG and G&L do not have it, WHS Francis Holland, SPGS have it

@Lolakath19

Thank you so much for the heads up. My DD’s status has changed to offered too! Delighted for her. Takes the pressure off to have an offer!

dimathur · 07/02/2023 12:14

Putney high results updated on open apply. No emails though.

Lolakath19 · 07/02/2023 12:14
