My son passed csse scoring 312. I applied through redbridge borough as a first choice.
Now I am moving into Chelmsford area. Is there any possibilty that he can get a place?. Can i send a letter to the school explaining about my current situation? Any advice greatly appreciated.

Did you Chelmsford first on the list and have you actually moved?

Re: Csse
the school offer 96 places and these are on the basis of score regardless of where you live - there is a thread where people posted their scores for application to the schools this year - worth having a read http://www.elevenplusexams.co.uk/forum/ ... 15&t=28403" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Re: Csse
There is no such thing as a "pass mark" for KEGS as candidates are ranked solely according to scores.
It is extremely unlikely that a score of 312 will be sufficient - the attachment from CSSE indicates that the lowest score to secure an offer at KEGS in the last four years was 337 for in catchment candidates.
It is possible that a score of 312 might be sufficient for an out of catchment place at Westcliff or Southend. Take a look at the Essex forum for more posts on scores and feedback from the open afternoon/evening presentations.

Re: Csse
You can make a late application to both or one of the schools at Southend. The Southend pass mark is 303. This score is likely to get a place in catchment.
The score of 315.996 and 3 or 4 of similar scores got in from the out of catchment waiting list last year but 315.174 missed by one place last year, however every year is different.

Re: Csse
You have to contact the Essex LEA and tell them about your move and your situation. They will allocate places to everyone who applied before the closing date which was 31/10/2012. After allocation day March 1st 2013, they will look into any late applications. If you want to make a late application to Southend LEA you have to go through the Essex LEA if you live in Chelmsford.
