Tolstoy - Can't find anything on %s in 2009, but in 2008 86% of children got their first preference (although presumably that's after appeals etc.)
We are also in the Twilight Zone, so thinking of you....It's been a very long wait hasn't it? My guess is that DS won't be offered Tommys, but is v.likely to get Crypt. Personally I really like Crypt so am not too fussed either way, but DS really took to Tommys. So when the letter comes I'll be guided by him as to whether he'd like me to appeal or not. We've not spoken about it at all for months, so who knows?
Good Luck to everyone who is waiting anxiously!

When I looked around for DS1 I found it hard to decide between the two. I preferred Tommy's for Maths , Science and the pool. However I was extremely impressed with the English department at Crypt, the grounds and the two boys who showed us around sold it very well.Personally I really like Crypt so am not too fussed either way, but DS really took to Tommys.

DS1 wanted Tommy's but would have happily gone to Crypt. This year I really need the two boys in the same school for practical reasons and right from the start I have felt that Tommy's was the most appropriate school for DS2's personality. He will cope better with the shorter lessons. Typical really. Last year wouldn't have cared if I was in twilight zone but wasn't this year when I needed the certainty hey ho into it we go .
Goodluck anyway
SusieSue, you star. You have a job for, well, if not life (steady on, this is the 21st century, after all) then for five more days.
Tolstoy!! Never say never. Your DDDS PASSED let's not forget. He passed. It ain't over yet. Courage, mon ami.
