Kent normally does it in a big co-ordinated round at the end of April - what does the website say about this year? It's not like some other areas where reallocation offers come in dribs and crabs after the 15 March decline/ accept deadline.

Have you looked on the websites of the schools that you want your child to go to? There's helpful information on the Judd website about the number of places that they expect to be reallocated on 21 April and what happens after 23 April. I imagine that there is similar info on other school websites.

Have you applied for schools in both Kent and Buckinghamshire?

On reallocation day my daughter was/still is so far 5th on the waiting list for a Kent Grammar (not DGGS).

Does anyone know the likelihood of her gaining a place - I can’t find any info online for typical movements on the waiting list, and the school won’t tell me how many they have taken in the last two years (obviously I know that this can change year on year but wanted a historic indication)

If anyone has an idea on ‘typical’ waiting list movement I’d appreciate it very much. Tia

That sounds quite hopeful to me. My son was 11th for Skinners after the second allocations (this was a few years ago though) and he got a place. It's a shame that the school won't give you any more info. At the time Skinners were really helpful at giving me a realistic expectation of him getting a place which I was v grateful for. It seemed then (might be different now I know) that there was a lot more movement in the weeks after the second allocation than on the second allocation day itself, although obviously it varies a lot from school to school. Good luck!
