is there a possibility that we will be with all the 4-5 people that we put down?

It is possible but unlikely - however, many people will be with more than the one person we are looking to make sure of. There will generally be no more than four from a year in each form group.

I think people are gradually getting more and more positive about the change but a lot of people are worried about who they will get put with. It is only 20 minutes a day (as people keep saying) and this should give everyone an oppourtunity to make more friends anyway! smile Will you get most of the people you put down in your house or is it just random? A lot of people are also saying that they only want to put down 2, 3 or 4 people who are best friends. Is this possible?

You can only put down 3/4 people - I certainly wouldn't put down 2. You need as many options as possible so we can make sure we can match everyone - if you put less people down, you give us less options and yourself less options. As I have said on a previous posting, we are giving serious and careful consideration to students being able to indicate some preference to help us and avoid any 'random' placing. Its not our intention to split people up - indeed, we want strong current friendships to offer strength to the new forms. Thanks for your other postings, Alice!

is it true that there will be 2 boys and 2 girls in each form?because it would make it easier to work out who to put down if your friends are girls and boys.

Personaly, I dont think they have decided about that. It will be more clear closer to the time when we start getting some details about the new year of school and the diffrent houses

true if we all stopped panicking then everyone would surely realise that

a:it's only 20 minutes of every day approve

b: we would be set for every lesson in year 7 anyway so the year 7s should stop saying that we won't see our form; we wouldn't have been with them anyway!tongueout

c: it could be quite fun with all the house games and competitions and stuff.big grin

but i am worried about the picking people thing mixed
