Well we got the test results early so I suppose we can't have everything.

For those looking for information regarding allocations for the county - just seen this - gives a few stats for those who like to assess chances!

89 % have their first choice - certainly reassuring I should think!

Well I know there are people out there who only put one choice down, and that is a comp that they have no hope of getting into. So I think those 2 % are mostly made up of people who didn't really take the best advice on how to fill in the CAF.

Good luck to all of your dcs. I think that we were very lucky last year to have the letters arrive a day early without warning it saved a lot of he stress. Only 1 hour to go now so I hope you all manage to stay awake :wink: long enough to collect your results. I will be thinking of you all and hope that your dcs get the schools that they want.
I am looking forward to reading your news in the morning.
