Query about DCHS waitlist
Hi,
Need advice for admissions for DCHS Sept 2013....
1. Can anyone say what was the waitlist cutoff for DCHS last year?
2. When do they stop taking from the waitlist ?
3. Would a waitlist number eight stand a chance (we are out of catchment too ...)
Thanx

Hi littlegirl, and welcome!
In the second round of allocations on 19th April the distance increased from 6.497 miles to 7.593 miles, all within catchment.

Last year isn't really relevant because they are using a different distance measurement this year, but you can see the distances for this year and previous years here: http://www.elevenplusexams.co.uk/school ... n-profiles" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;littlegirl wrote:1.

Once the 11+ result expires, which is in the autumn term.2. When do they stop taking from the waitlist ?
I am sorry to have to say that it is very unlikely.3. Would a waitlist number eight stand a chance (we are out of catchment too ...)

Re: Query about DCHS waitlist
As the school is always overscribed, is it possible for the 1st in the waiting list got a place ever?

Re: Query about DCHS waitlist
Yes, of course, but it depends on whether that "1st place" is after the first round or subsequent rounds - the chances do, unfortunately, decrease as time goes on.
