Does anyone have any information for what rankings got through under reallocation?

I think the figures quoted are for March 1st so they include reallocation.

Hi, I thought you had to put your reallocation form in after the March 1st offers came out ?

You may be right - so possibly check with school admissions. Hebden stated the figures were for 'allocation day' but the LEA just states 'in the 2015/2016 admission year'.

I know that there is movement at reallocation but I'm not sure which date is being used for the figures.

Hi again

I was just looking at a post from the last intake and it looks like someone ranking 399 was successful on reallocation so I think these must be allocation day figures.

Hi all, I have been thinking of everyone going through the process this year. I know all too well how stressful it can be, having gone through this twice with my two children. I have checked my email from Calderdale Admissions and it definitely states that the above cut offs were at 1st March Allocation Day. There is always some movement after this date each year as children give up their places, but I do not have this data. I have always found Calderdale Admissions very open, so I am sure they will provide this information if they have it.

Good luck to anyone now having to wait until 1st March to find out which school they have been allocated x
