None I'd say - how far are you from the nearest? Is it within the historic distances in Sally-Anne's spreadsheet?

Bucks allocations tables for many years can be found here

I strongly suspect you don't have a snowball in Hades chance TBH. I live in East Reading and don't know of anyone getting a Bucks school for some years.

(I also hope that you would be intending to move, if you did get a place.)

This is last year. No doubt you have looked at previous years as part of your research and so know the answer. I hope you have other good options. Can I ask, were you advised by anyone that Bucks from West Reading was an option and if so who?

Based on last year - none! Even if you could get a place would you seriously consider this journey????

I wouldn't even try to travel from one side of Reading to the other at that sort of time.
