SWBGS (and assuming others) will go catchment first then OOA - catchment distance will extend marginally further then OOA - SWBGS is on borders of Berks and Oxon - all Oxon out of area and most of Berks whereas Catchment (Bucks) extends to Northend and Fawley for instance but not Lane End (Bucks and only approx 4 miles). It's not as straightforward as distanc - maps are on Bucks website.

Eta in 2014 SWBGS final allocation went to Henley (if that helps).

Thanks kittymum. It is the Henley area that I'm thinking of - as you say, the OOA distance was (just) enough in 2014 but whether it extends as far this year is anyone's guess!

Good luck everyone tomorrow - hope the news is good for everyone and especially hope there's no repeat of last year when catchment kids didn't get GMS.

I seem to remember 2 years ago that Bucks emails arrived mid morning.

Any more "insider goss" as to how allocations are looking?
