FAQs
St. Olave's does not make any offers of places until after GCSE results are published and known. The earliest point at which offers will start to be made is the afternoon of GCSE results day. We do not make any "conditional" offers of places in advance of GCSE results day and will only make an offer to someone from within the applicant pool (who applied during the application period earlier in the year).
