I have heard from a friend that she knows someone with 121 got offer from Upton!!

How frustrating! What does this mean for my child who didnt get in with 120?

Which local authority are you in Gee9876? Asking as I am in a situation where our child did not get any offer and had a score of 124 and we think it's an error somewhere.

I am in hounslow lea.
I am certain your child has got into Langley. I read about a similar situation last year too where a child got Langley but the eadmissions website had allocated a random school.
It all got sorted soon enough.

Both of my twin DDs got into Upton. One with a score of 129 the other with 131. Distance is 9 miles.

Thank you that's reassuring and hopefully will be the case for our child too. For Upton, the waiting list is normally based on distance so it may not place you high depending on the distances for others in the waiting list. They don't use the score in this case.

We live in Spelthorne area and our DD scored 125 in slough exams and we didnt get any of the slough schools. We had put Upton as our 3rd choice. Tiffins was our first choice and NonSuch our second. I cannot understand the system now. What could have gone wrong ? Who do we contact now ?

Which school were you actually allocated? Was it TGS or Nonsuch, or one you had ranked as a lower preference, or not named at all as a preference (the Admissions Code allows you to express preferences, which your LA must take into account when trying to find your DC a place, not make choices - there is a difference )?

If you were allocated TGS or Nonsuch, there would be no need for your LA to give you a place at Upton.

I am pretty sure your DD would have got a place at Nonsuch with 318.
Must be another admin error!

@ Toad Mum

Do you have any advice regarding waiting lists for slough schools?
