Email notification on National Allocation Day

Post by SunnyDays »

Hi there,

On the BCC website it states that we can log in from 2pm on 1st March to see which school we have been allocated. It also says that an email will be sent out. Does anyone know what time the email is usually sent? Is it also at 2pm?

Thanks.

We are OOC and just received an email and have been allocated first choice WHS and are 10.5 miles away so very pleased.

Oxfordshire - on the Bucks/Oxon border but I have heard that someone closer did not get in so a bit confused ?

That’s for Bucks. Other LAs are publishing earlier.

Unfortunately those outside Bucks get to hear about Bucks schools before the residents. It does give people an idea of whether they might be in, though.

We are in MK and got our email at midnight. Got first choice (AHS). Although we are OOC don't take it as an indication about how far out they offered places. She most likely got in on sibling priority as her brother is at AGS.

Painful having to wait until 2pm when all those outside of Bucks already know....
