How reserve lists work

You get a band

When placed on a reserve list, the outcome letter shows a band from A (best) to F (unlikely) estimating your chances.

Offers roll down

As families decline offers, places open up and the reserve list moves band by band over several months.

Bands are estimates

Based on last year's movement — not guarantees. Actual lists vary depending on how many families accept or decline.
