Leicester City Council has yet to release its figures.

Parents who applied online will receive an e-mail about the decision today and more information about the outcome will be available by logging on with their username and password at the website below. Due to essential website maintenance, this will not be accessible tomorrow and Sunday.

Parents who applied on paper or who have been refused a place at one of their choices will receive a letter from today advising them of their options.

The Leicester Mercury would like to hear from any parents disappointed with their school decision. Contact education correspondent Fiona Dryden on 0116 222 4271.
