Comp school place withdrawn TODAY due to LA error

[Ricky74]

Thanks. Today I'm doubting myself. Another weekend with no answer. It's torturous despite the relief of getting the appeal over with. I have to believe that there is some right to this wrong.

First we waited for one set of 11 plus post (bad news)
Then we waited for another (great for one twin devastating the other twin)
Three weeks ago the post brought a negative appeal result
Then the withdrawal of this place
Not sure I can face another letter!!!!

Keeping everything crossed for good news today (let's hope it's a first-class stamp).

The suspense is bad for me, I can't begin to think what you are feeling Ricky. Thinking of you.

been checking back... keeping fingers crossed for you....

We won!

Found out today.

We arrived home to the offer of a place.

And then another offer - from the LA off the waiting list. You couldn't write it!

I owe Etienne an enormous thanks. Thanks too to Sally Anne and everybody who kept me sane (ish).

I am relieved, of course, but just feel it was all so unnecessary and I hope no other family has to endure that.

I am very, very happy indeed to hear the news. This was an utterly ghastly situation - possibly one of the worst I can recall on the forum, and I am so glad that common sense and justice prevailed.

So pleased for you, totally delighted. You have been through so much and have ploughed on when others would have given up. Your children are lucky to have you in their corner. Enjoy a nice glass of something cold in celebration.

Revenge, perhaps? I am told it is best served cold ...

Justice is served - well done!
