2nd round allocations looming!!

Hi Rose Petal

MM's son was a late application and therefore not included in the first round of allocations on 1st March, i.e. no school place was offered and therefore no appeal could be lodged.

Once she has received a school allocation in the second round on 13th April, she has 14 days to lodge an appeal for the preferred school.

Thanks for clarifying that S-A, I was beginning to panic a little again

Fingers crossed for myself, Cats12 and mumofboy so far, is anyone else waiting? We have less than a week to go now and let's hope for all of us that it goes on no longer than that

There is in fact no legal deadline for the submission of an appeal.

Where a date is specified, it is usually so that an appeal can be heard at the same time as most other appeals for a particular school.

Parents are free to submit an appeal at a later date. Sometimes it might even be advantageous (although I wouldn't go so far as to recommend it as a strategy!).

Thank you very much for you word's of wisdom Etienne, very appreciated to get solid confirmation that I am not too late to appeal if necessary once allocated some form of school

Anyone else on here waiting on AGS?

Yes, thnks Sally-Anne and Etienne for appeal information, though really not sure about taking that avenue - it seems such a long shot, despite conviction about 1st choice school being the right one

Fingers crossed MM. Got a good feeling for your DC - he so deserves it. What will be will be as they say - places will already have names against them. Have already looked up date for next month's allocations in case our wait goes on

Oh god, when you put it like that it make's me even more anxious

Knowign that name's are already on those school's make's me just want to know right now

Midget is now also getting tired of people asking what school he's going to and having to tell them he has no school yet!

Sorry to make you more anxious! Hang on in there

I know what you mean about others asking what school DC going to - my DS's friends as oblivious as my DC is at the moment - parents another matter though!
