Pretty sure I got some sort of acknowledgement from them (by them I mean the DfE). That said, having just had a very brief look I can't find an email.

I guess you have heard nothing from S'wark either then Meky?

I'm concerned as I didn't receive any kind of confirmation of receipt of application either. When I emailed Penna I got a generic automated reply saying they would respond to my query within 48 hours but still no reply.

I just checked and I did receive a confirmation email.
Check up with Penna again just to be sure that they received your application.
good luck :smile:

I also didn't receive a confirmation email and remember thinking it was strange at the time, but I double checked the website and my application had been sent. Maybe I should call too

I've messaged Penna, I did find an email I had sent asking if I was supposed to get email confirmation and I had a reply saying no, so hopefully they have it there somewhere!

Hi again,

I just phoned Penna as they didn't respond to my email, they said that some regions have now completed their shortlisting and others are still in the process, York apparently are still in the process so I should hear back with a yes or no by the end of the week she said.

She also said that confirmation emails to the original application were not sent out so if you haven't heard anything it doesn't automatically mean that they didn't receive your form.

is there anyway to prepare for what the group task or role play may be? I cant find any clues anywhere to suggest what it might involve? What happens after assessment day? Is that it then?

Hello!
I'm looking for the same..googling for different ideas to what may come up!
After the assessment day if successful there is a further assessment centre for your chosen local authority and then that is it!
Good Luck! :smile:

Hi, I have also applied to York and I only found out yesterday that I have been invited to the assessment day on the 27th June (so not long!). Hope you hear back soon and are successful!! Keep me posted!

Also, have people just applied to one region? As on other threads I have noticed a few people say they have put down choices. I only chose York as I can't remember seeing any options to choose a few or a second..but would be willing to choose others. I wonder if I can maybe do so later.

Heya, congrats on getting through to next stage, I'm still none the wiser! There was an option you could tick to say that if you didn't get accepted at your chosen authority you wouldn't mind other locations considering your application - so I ticked that box as I don't mind moving round the country.

Good luck with York! X
