School offer day: what time?

70 replies

Our LA usually updates the portal at midnight, I stayed awake last time I went through it. Last time I want to say the school offer day was a Tuesday so I stayed up on the Monday night. This time it's the 3rd so I assume our portal will be updated on Sunday night, anyone else know for their area?

(Our website doesn't actually say, only gives the date).

Surrey is usually at 5pm, you can see the outcome on the portal but it can take a couple of hours before the email comes through.

I’m already awake so may as well stay up another hour.

im not worried, feeder school, faith and sibling already in the school, but I would like to know for certain.

Leicestershire was midnight last year.

Parts of Warwickshire are out. Early reports suggesting grammar entry scores have jumped up this year.

Done like clockwork, we got the space we wanted. And breathe!

I’ve just remembered, after looking online, I can’t log into the portal, they shut it down and send emails out during working ours. That’s me off to bed then.

First choice for my DC 😊

DragonFly98 · 03/03/2025 00:05

Midnight for us just signed on the portal , email followed a few minutes later.

1st Choice DS will be so happy in the morning

Anxietyqueeen · 03/03/2025 00:10

Didn't get our first choice. My son won't be happy :(

Alice2535 · 03/03/2025 00:13

No change on the portal for me, just says application is being processed and cannot be amended :(

No33 · 03/03/2025 00:17

First choice for my daughter 😁

discov · 03/03/2025 00:20

I can't log in. It says it has sent a verification code but nothing is coming through Sad

Anxietyqueeen · 03/03/2025 00:20

My friend hasn't got any of her daughter's choices (4) she's been given a school they've never visited!

KittenTail · 03/03/2025 00:29

Yes got in first choice, good luck to all

OneChicOliveBeaker · 03/03/2025 00:30

I don’t even know where to look on the portal… anyone in Leicestershire able to see theirs yet?

Ohdearrrrrrr · 03/03/2025 00:31

First choice, I logged on at midnight. Will have a happy child in the morning.

Chillilounger · 03/03/2025 00:32

Same. Phew!

Pyjamatimenow · 03/03/2025 00:35

We don’t have a portal to log in to unfortunately so just waiting for the email. Someone on fb has already had theirs and whinging about the school I put down as first choice. People are so inconsiderate

Burnie81 · 03/03/2025 00:37

Aarrghh! Mine states that the offer has been made, when I click on that it states that the offer information has not yet been published. I'm going to have to go to bed or I will keep refreshing the page like a mad woman. Congrats to those with their first choice!

BadgerHawk · 03/03/2025 01:00

I’m in london so know it won’t be til 5pm but still logged in to check 😭

I’m realising how impatient I am. Should probably work on it.

pinkpanther84 · 03/03/2025 01:09

Email at 12.01, first choice. Didn't expect it to be so prompt!

We are in Warwickshire, got the offer at midnight. 6th place school offered- gutted! We applied for grammar and I can’t see how to view what the AQS is for the Warwickshire grammar schools- more importantly what the minimum waiting list score is- do you know where I can see this info?

Also, how did you come to know about these early reports of the AQS being higher in Warwickshire this year? Curious! x

ShakespearesSisters · 03/03/2025 01:42

Just had a look and was disappointed for no email but it was in the junk folder.

Clicked the link to download the letter. Got 1st choice. It's our catchment, we are really close, and her sister goes so was fairly certain but there is always that little doubt.

The email came just after midnight when we applied for my son but no email yet for my youngest. I don't believe you can view results on the website, we have to wait for the email.

Leicestershire will be 10am this year accordingly to a LCC social media post. So a bit longer to wait.
