If I'm not mistaken, your score was over 40 right?

What other region accepted you? I'm tempted to say not to accept an offer until tomorrow when the helpline is open. To be honest, even if you did next steps now they won't be looking at it today they're too busy getting these offers out so it's probably worth talking to someone.

Hi thanks for th advice dan and congrats on your offer

I was offered Birmingham and Solihull yesterday both on 35 points. I haven't accepted either yet no.

I'm not a troll and nor have I lied. If I get the job I will ask why I was required to take an additional test. It's no different to how some people said the interviewers told them they could not use the examples on the application, whereas most were told they could. Were those people trolling? Or was there just inconsistency from area to area?

Oh o sorry for misunderstanding, your experiences were so different from rest o us that everybody thought you were trolling, but yes,you should ask why you were given additional test in the beginning . Its really unfair ,If I were u and not offered a job at my favourite location after all that, I would complain to higher authorities for unfair practice.
Don't know if you heard back anything, wish u good luck xx

Hard luck on yours but as we've seen wait list can very quickly become offers as some people will doubtless have dropped out over the course of the process.

Just give it a few days and see if there is any movement. I'm kind of tempted to do that myself to see if I get anywhere with the 5 min walk one. Also if loads of people have applied for multiple regions it might be that the people ahead of you in the list only put your region as a backup and decline the offer.

Fingers crossed for all.

I'm hoping that too,

I'm in Bournemouth so I can imagine that people were applying for Hampshire also - something I didn't do (dumbass me). I was quiet open to where in the region I worked though so hopefully a few people have already got jobs etc

*fingers firmly crossed!

Wanda if I were given additional test unexectedly, i don't thinking would ave performed half as good as I performed at the interview.

I've just got the reserve list for Derbyshire with 38...

Not too gutted as I do at least have one offer and still waiting for 1 more district.

Good news for those on reserve list, as candidates are able to join at only one district, other districts in their preference list would strike off their name and hence freeing up more spaces.

So fingers crossed xx
