ds205 I used to go to that school MANY MANY YEARS AGO!

Currently, GD is an ok school/academy. Leadership and management is good. The teaching and learning is good as well. They did go through some difficult times but it looks like things are turning around.
The HGS W/L is moving a lot slower this year than previous years (by around 20 places), so I’m unsure of your possibility of HGS. Hopefully Transition Day will sort out a few more places when they have no shows. All the best.
The Aston list seems to be going lower than last year - someone mentioned 214 being offered last week, I think. I wonder whether parents who'd put Aston above HGS originally are now deciding to stick with HGS when offered from the waiting list? There's at least one person on here who's done that. It's all very strange. I'm sure there will be some movement, especially after induction day and also in September, but it's definitely not going the same way as previous years.

Hi all.
We received a call today to say that my daughter has been offered a place at handsworth. Will call and free a place at Sutton for some lucky girl when I receive it in writing.

26/04/18: 21st, but there were 16 offers made since 1st march 2018.
So was 37th in the list from the start.
25/04/18 : 11th
18/06/18 : phone call to say we have a place.

Best of luck to everyone in 2018, and for the parents reading this on 2019.

Yay, that's brilliant news, well done to your son! Now we have an idea how much the QM waiting list moves for future years, which will be really helpful to others. Hope you can enjoy the rest of the summer now and get ready for September!
