Got our 2nd choice, Chatham Grammar

Will have to appeal now - I have spoken to admissions and they weren't all that helpful, wouldn't tell me how far off we were...

So waiting list, and then appeal

Haven't heard yet.
How do you get the decision from the website? I can't find it.

Boy. :)

Narrowly missed a pass, extenuating circumstances... unsuccessful review. was hoping for a miracle!! Never mind - will be appealing to RMGS and Chatham Grammar :?

Good luck :wink:

I think then you wouldn't have been offered either of the grammars without going through appeal...that is the process iyswim!

I am very hopeful that you would get Chatham Boys on appeal as they usually have spaces and he was a near miss. I anticipate doing the same this time next year with DD2...

Can you check if you can still get in on the Medway site, I think they have taken it down!!!

Am sorry ruby - but you never know you may be lucky on appeal - ive been through a successful over-sub appeal, so you never know and if not it may work out for the best. Perhaps your next dd may not pass and chatham girls are good with appeals. :)
