Hi All,
According to the Bucks website, the alloocation detail will be e-mailed from 5PM on the 1st Match.
Does any one remeber what time you received your e-mails?
I can't believe tomorrow is st March.
Is it only me getting very nervous?
Thanks
Monsoon

I can't remember what time the email came through (it was 2 years ago) although I seem to recall it was in the afternoon. I do remember logging onto the BCC website at ungodly o'clock to check that DS had got his 1st choice. I was really mean too - I scrolled the list from the bottom so all he saw was school 6 Not Allocated, school 5 Not Allocated etc - by the time we got to school 1 Allocated he was jumping around the room.

I am OOC so not sure what time we will find out. Someone has mentioned that you can log in after midnight so am tempted to stay up. Not expecting good news at this stage anyway but you never know !
I hope everyone receives good news !

So you have sat with you DS to see the results with him... You are brave... well done.
I am so nervous and I don't think I can sit with my DD... unfortunately, my DD has no after school activity tomorrow and I am not so sure how I can check my e-mails without her. May be I could send her to her friend's house?? I am sure she will know why I am sending her?

Hi Monsoon
Are you OOC or borderline for the school you want?

We received ours at about the same time I think. I think we were told they were available on line from midnight but the website crashed and I think recovered at about the same time the email came through. Good luck everyone, this will be me (again) this time next year! Xx

That was certainly the case 2 years ago, and I have heard nothing to the contrary this year.
