lol..True, Bromley hasnt changed the dates.

I am be wrong, but does the fact that the adjudicators decision, came in just this Monday,has anything to do with it ? Probably they dont want parents coming back,saying we were confused and didnt get time to make proper choices etc etc..Just a thought.

So pleased about this as parents only actually had a week to consider/look at the schools after the results . I chose to not look at any schools until results as didnt want any disappointment for my daughter, although I did a fair bit of research online

I called admissions today and she told me the 31st October?? But a local Maidstone free paper has said that the date is extended until the 5th November.

This is good news. I am definitely going to try to have another look at our choices in the first week back with DS, and try to get our last few queries answered. Is the change of date published on the KCC site?

It would have been nice for KCC to inform the schools so that they could have informed all year 6s! We shouldn't have to find this information out from a (Very good) website!

I've submitted ours just in case the computer thinks the cut off is 31st then if by some miracle after visiting the last schools open afternoon we change our mind will go back and change it.

This is really good for me now to get all my paperwork sorted but I am getting a bit paranoid.

I have to send off the supplementary form to the Church schools but at the back of my mind I am thinking these schools may not even be aware of the new extension so they could just bin my form if they get it after the 31st. Its half term now so I cant confirm from the schools if they are aware of these new changes.
