There is no need for you to accept the place offered to your child at any Hampshire school.
However, please let us know in writing if you no longer need the place so that it can be offered to another child.
If you have not been offered a place at your preferred school, your child will be added to the waiting list.
You also have a right of appeal against the refusal.
