It went lower than that.... SHSG was 314 and WHSG was 317 as my dd was the one they offered it to!!!! Don't give up hope there is soooooo much movement. Hopefully this year won't b as slow as last year and u won't have to wait as long!! Good luck x

Re: Essex out of catchment and borderline score
In previous years that would of been a high enough score to be in... Last year was an extremely high scoring year....I know only too well what waiting feels like but don't give up hope at all as I said there is plenty of movement and you just can't second guess what others are going to do or you will drive yourself mad! Sit tight keep your eye on the forum because it is very helpful and don't listen to what other mums say in the playground!!! I am keeping everything crossed for you!!!! Xx

Re: Essex out of catchment and borderline score
The only note of caution I would sound, is that both SHSB and WHSG decided - well after allocation day - to offer an extra 30 places. For SHSB, I would assume that the extras came directly off the SHSB waiting list, but the initial effect of the extra places at WHSG was that about 18 girls from the new SHSG intake moved to Westcliff - possibly because they would find the journey easier - and so quite a large new group got a place at SHSG.

Hi, I am also out of catchment, interested in WHSG. I think my DD is a borderline case too, a little worried though, her scores are:
English :37/60
Maths:41/60
Overall score o/c : 315.504
Proud of her score as she tried her best, hoping for a positive outcome.
