is anyone on the waiting list for stratford girls grammar?

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how likely it is that my DD will get a place. She is position 8 on the waiting list and scored 326 (330 was automatic entry). It's really hard for her, as her twin brother got a place at KES.

Hi

Only saw this post today so I hope you already have had some news. My DD got the same score as yours last year, was 3rd in the waiting list at first but actually went backward as people with higher scores joined the waiting list - she was at number 10 at one stage.

She got a place within three or four of weeks of her being put on the waiting list, she is there now and loving it.

I wish you and your DD all the best.

Thanks for your message. We had the good news that my daughter has a place from the waiting list on Wednesday. So we're absolutely over the moon. Good luck to all the parents and children still waiting, there's still time for more movement on the lists, but I'm told that the lists are frozen now, so at least you can't go down, as no one else can add themselves to the lists now.
