THIRD TIME LUCKY - WE WON OUR APPEAL!!!!

Post by mumsy »

After two unsuccessful appeals, tears, tantrums, and a black cloud since the 3rd March, we have today received the letter that we thought we would never get -

FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS - :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

our DD's appeal at Dartford Grammar School for Girls was upheld!!!

Words cannot describe how we feel right now, we are all delighted, expecially our DD.

The first two appeals were dreadful, but I did feel that my final appeal it went well, but was not holding my breath, so when the post came today I actually said out loud "another rejection letter"!! SO tears once more, but this time for a good reason.

I am truly sad for anyone who didnt win their appeals, but this just proves IT IS POSSIBLE, and even when you feel like giving up (which I have on several occasions), you must fight for what you think is right.

Thanks to everyones wonderful advice and support on this site, I do not think I would of been as well informed if I had not found you all!!!

Special thanks to my Shell Belle (you know who you are!!X), the little sis who kept me going, and made me carry on when I'd had had enough!!!! :wink:

I have one very happy little girl tonight.

You know I am always there for you and vice versa. :wink: :wink:

I knew there had to be light at the end of the tunnel, as it certainly couldn't of got any worse.

As they say"every cloud has a silver lining".

I knew you could do it, and hope this will inspire other parents out there who are thinking of throwing the towel in, DON'T!!!

At least now, we can have a stress free holiday together. :D :D :D


WELL DONE TO YOU AND MY LITTLE NIECE "DUDE"!!!!
