Timing of Offers from Reigate Grammar and/or Caterham School

For those who received offers from Reigate Grammar School and/or Caterham School within the last few weeks, can you let us know upon what date you received the offer and whether it was via post or e-mail?

Our DD will we taking the entrance exams for both schools next year, and we're thinking of taking a holiday during the February half term break to celebrate the end of the 11+ madness. However, if the good/bad news hasn't arrived by the time we leave, I suspect it won't be a very relaxing holiday.

Had your news arrived by the last day of the half term - i.e. by Friday 12th February? (Obviously if the news arrives via e-mail it's less of an issue).

The letters will be posted on Thursday 9th February (as with all "Trinity Group" schools).

Thanks Ladymuck. Assuming they're posted First Class there's a good chance they'd arrive on the Friday then. That's good to know.

Certainly they are meant to be received on the Friday, and if they didn't arrive then you could ring in the afternoon.

You've convinced me. A holiday beginning on Saturday 11th it is... :)

We got two of our three letters on the Friday. The Whitgift one didn't arrive so I rang and they told is the outcome on the phone.
