So you proved my fears wrong!! Brilliant! I'm so pleased for you! Well done!

Your DGD can look forward to September now and hopefully it will be easier for the little ones.

You deserve a and a big bunch of .

Brilliant news. Hope your DGD will be very happy. What a relief.

I feel as if I have been following this saga for Years! Well done to you and your family. Your persistence has ensured that commonsense has prevailed at last.

However, once GD's place has been signed, sealed and delivered, I hope that you will write up a detailed time-line of events and the strain it has put upon you all and present it to the Education Committee, Local MP and Councillors for their information. Someone needs to take notice and sort out the current shambolic system.

Fantastic news well done

You deserved to win.Well done! I can imagine how you feel. Your DGD must be so relieved.

Fantastic news Gillybob, after all your heartache, hard work and for being a tenacious gran. Well done, and best wishes to your little granddaughter.

Delighted for you all gilly. Well done.

I have thought about your 'little' gd a lot in the last few weeks, and I felt quite upset for her, so I can imagine how distressed you've all been.
