Waiting for second round allocation place into GS

Post by Daddy123 »

Is there anyone who moved in after November to Bucks and now waiting for a place for your DC in the second round allocation.
Any idea how many seats are available for 2nd round? Assuming everyone accepts their 1st round allocation (than appeal etc.), are there many seats for second round? Don't think the Bucks CC website or school give any info on past trend except the mention of distance....anyone with info or past experience could please share.

They fill up to PAN in round one except where qualified applicants is fewer than PAN where it then says 'all offered'.

You will need people to turn down places and for you to be as near the school as possible.

The ones who have places will be those "all offered" at March 1st - although as Sally-Anne as pointed out elsewhere Chesham Grammar was all offered at exactly PAN. The schools offered out to a certain distance will have filled all their places as of March 1st, but there is no way of knowing how many people will turn their place down - it is different each year, but looking at past allocations will give you an idea of how much movement there is each year. If you are close to your preferred school, you should be in with a good chance.
