My council says :Waiting lists will not be usually be issued until after the closing date of acceptance - as the schools cannot know how many spare places they have until then - check you council guidance or wait to see what it says when you get your offer. The process is usually made clearly then.
It is assumed that you are accepting the school place offered. If a place is declined at a school of a higher preference than you have been allocated then your child's name will automatically be placed on a waiting list for those schools for which a place has been declined.
So it seems like, council will be dealing with waiting list for higher preference schools. I was under the impression, I have to chase the schools for waiting list.
Am I correct in understanding? Thanks
