COLCHESTER COUNTY HIGH - WAITING LIST

Post by sar »

HI- is there anyone else out there on the waiting list for colc cchs?
daughter is now 11th place (was 10th) how very frustrating.
Beginning to doubt her chances very much now, I wonder what the list was like last year, was there much movement?
Told to phone back after 15th, but its hard to wait that long.
A very anxious mum.

Does seem a bit strange to go backwards for Col CCHS.

I think the date they gave is probably the deadline for places to be accepted but there is nothing to stop you calling before that - places do come up sporadically. Also, people do accept the place & then switch out of the state sector so the 15th isn't the end of the line.

Have a look at last year's threads & you might get a better of idea of how much movement there was.

If pushed I would say that you are probably at the margins but certainly not beyond what is possible - and thats only my view, from what I can recall from previous years.

Thoughts are with you - not an easy time!

Seems like 2 years ago the list moved 10 places by May - not sure if it moved more after that or how many places it moved last year though.

Hang on in there!
