Secondary school placements: We want your stories

PARENTS found out this week which secondary school their child has been allocated a place at - and we want to hear your views on the process.

Just over half of all schoolchildren in the county were allocated to their first choice secondary school, figures released by Buckinghamshire County Council showed.

A total of 222 pupils from the 5,445 applications received by the council were unsuccessful in being allocated a place at any of their top six choices.

We want to hear from you if your child has just been through the application process. Perhaps you are one of the 222 who didn't get a top six placement, or you are planning to appeal the placement you have been given?
