The schools do not know what your preference order is. Put the schools on your application in the order you want them - don’t let anyone tell you any different - you will be offered the first school for which you match the criteria. If that isn’t your first choice, then your second choice will be offered and so on.
Always accept the school you are offered, even if it isn’t your first choice - you will automatically be placed on the waiting list for your higher preference school.
Accepting the school you have been offered, will have no effect on the waiting list for your preferred choice.
When completing your application, always make sure you put on the school which is your catchment, even if it isn’t what you really want. If you don’t put your catchment school and your higher choices aren’t available, you will be offered any school then that has vacancies !
Hope all this makes sense and helps.
