Failed appeal?

Hi,
Just a reminder if you've lost an appeal: Schools still keep a waiting list - ask for your child to be kept on it, especially if they only just failed to get a place in the exam.
The waiting list has nothing to do with failing an appeal - if your appeal failed, but your child is at the top of the waiting list, and a space becomes available - your child will get it.
I'd heard that several of the children whose appeals we turned down this year now have been offered places. I'm happy for them and their parents, as there were many who I thought would do well in the school, but whose appeals we just could not allow for various reasons.
