It's hard to concentrate on anything else!

mensaqueen - Did you get your HBS letter from Mr Blond in the end?

Is it true that the primary schools already know the schools which schools their pupils have been allocated?

According to the county's Determined Admission Arrangements for 2010-2011 (page 60), primary heads will be sent the information on Thursday 25th February, but they can't tell anyone.

Thanks WP, hopefully the same will apply for Barnet. In which case, I will give the Head a big wink on Friday morning and closely judge her reaction!

[bluerabbit]

I'm surprised that in this day and age confidential information regarding us is allowed to be sent to primary schools before we are told ourselves. Or am I just being over sensitive this week!

[Daogroupie]

No, I agree with you. I don't see why the school get to know something before me that I have not chosen to tell them and they did not help me with. The School you are applying for is not allowed to know your preferences so how come the school you are leaving gets to??? I don't intend to have any eye contact at all with anyone in the school who might know. I could not bear any pitying glances.

[WP]

The head is told which school you were allocated, not which schools you named as preferences.

[Daogroupie]

But are they also told if you got your first , second or third choice?

[bluerabbit]

They shouldn't be told anything until we are notified. It's private information.

No, they are only told the name of the school you've been allocated.
