Indie Offer Day 2026—London edition SPGS, G&L, CLGS, FHSS, Latymer

[IsThisRealLife]

Haven’t seen a thread for keeping track of school communications today — or for commiseration re: this fiendish week of waiting — so: voila.

School gate this morning was a lot — strong cohort waiting for news from the usual suspects…

Quite a lot of action on this thread: https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/secondary/5274854-sw-london-grammar-and-private-senior-school-entry-2026?page=5&reply=148844975

CLGS emails just came out …

Yes. Today’s the day. Refreshing inbox every 5 mins. Should’ve taken today off! GLA!

If the behaviour of my WhatsApp cohort is any indication the mothers of K&C are all doing precisely the same thing

This is insane

As I can't focus on work so might as well post on multiple threads: Francis Holland Regent's Park and Notting Hill and Ealing were out nice and early. Now just waiting on Emanuel, Latymer Upper and G&L... So probably the more ambitious ones! Don't know why they can't all just manage the 9am emails like the others!

Couldn’t agree more.

As a side note, apparently portals for some schools are showing offer status ahead of emails being sent — and some FHSS emails have gone out. Ditto some SPGS no’s…

Were waiting for SPGS. Anyone know when they came out last year?

SPGS offers out. We got in. Can now get on with work.

We did too — back to the grind for me as well

Anyone heard from Godolphin —?

Not yet

Anyone waiting for KGS?

Anyone waiting for KGS?

Anyone waiting for KGS?

yes! Fingers crossed. Hope it comes soon, actually need to do some work at some point today!

We’ve received a happy email from Latymer Upper.

The wait is nerve-wracking. Hopefully it will be out soon. Congratulations for getting an offer from Latymer Upper.

I called KGS who said emails will be out before end of day. Letters were sent out yesterday but some will get delivered next week as its not special delivery just first class. So if you have not received letters, its royal maiil not KGS.

So surreal to be on the other side of this — sending the most heartfelt support to those still waiting. Honestly not certain how/if I would have coped with another few hours. So brutal. Onwards

My DD got offer from City, any feedback?

anyone have idea with Highgate short reserve list? we applied for bursary also.

Mine did, too. Such an interesting school. Are you going to offer day?

@IsThisRealLife yes - what about you?

Definitely. Very curious about the cohort — it’s a big thing for us.

@IsThisRealLife I sent u a PM!

Got an offer from CLSG (the only school we applied to). Anyone know how it compares to SPGS and NLCS? Is it worth the money? We are thinking of attending the open day on monday.
