Received an offer yesterday for colchs. Very relieved and excited for dd. 24th originally on waiting list. 325.9 I think.

You are lucky and so is DD, 24th on the waiting wow and got an offer from CRGS. Many congrats

Congratulations Chilly123. Wonderful news.

We were in the same situation last year with DD1. With a sudden dash to Coes for uniform but I can report that she has loved every minute of it, is doing really well.

DD2 has just started Y7 too. I think they are looking forward to the Y7 disco at the end of the month.

Wishing your dd all the best on her exciting journey.

Hi, has anybody know anything about CCHS? My daughter is first on the w/l, but we haven't heard anything yet.

Hi,

are the figures for post 2014 are absolute numbers out of 60?
Some number do not seem to be correct. e.g. 67 out of 60 for 2018 for English
and 59.9 in maths as a mean also does not seem to be correct.

If you can please check and confirm, it would help parents like us who are in the journey for 2019.

I know I've posted an answer to the self same query somewhere, possibly not actually on this thread, though

If you read what Blitz has written, you will see that she has converted scores to percentages, because for 2014 and previously, the English was out of 50 and the maths was out of 40 (actually it was out of 38 for 2008 entry, for some reason) vs each being out of 60 from 2015 entry onwards.

Thank you to all those who have posted scores. Do post waiting list positions etc. when they are released. It really does help everyone to see where the cut-offs are (and also identify any admission mistakes).

Do keep posting scores, especially borderline ones (pm me if you would rather do this anonymously). I will try to update regularly.

Thanks Blitz

Toadmum,

Can you please explain how this is possible? Is it due to someone moving into the area late? But it will be late application? So late applications can still get into the wait list if they move in late and come up the wait list after the offer list is out?

All waiting lists are ranked in order of the over-subscription criteria. When late applications join the list they will be slotted into their rank order place and some people will then slip down the waiting list

Thank you, that helps.
