Hi everyone

Thank you for your many congratulations for winning the SHF appeal for my DD yesterday.

I'm afraid that we've had the letter today about her AHS appeal - her first choice- and you are all going to have to do it again! WE WON THAT TOOOOOOO!

I am in a state of shock and will now have to go and lie down. But I wanted to share our good news with you all first. I cannot believe how good it feels (after those months of despair) and that we really do have a choice.

I will be posting details in the appropriate sticky over the next few days - after all, what am I going to do with my time now I have no appeals to win? I feel that I've got the full set now - won an 11+ appeal (DS), lost an 11+ appeal (DD), DD passes 12+ but is refused a place, but wins both appeals.

Thank you so much.

WOW!! What fantastic new again!

I think I would go round both schools during the day - get a feel for how they cope with new 12+ entrants.

Well done again!

What a quandary - but a nice "problem" to have after all you've been through!

Dear Dejavu

How wonderful is that - you and DD deserve the choice and your 12+ appeal notes could be a masterscript for those next year

Have the greatest weekend in a long, long time - I'll be thinking of you!

PS I agree with G55 about induction for Yr8 - without DS knowing so many at the school, he would have floundered for ages - bear that in mind when making your final decision - but hey, who minds decisions like that!!!

Fantastic!

You worked so hard on your case, dejavu - you really deserved this.

All the same, with so much competition for extra places, it's remarkable!

Many, many congratulations to you and DD.
