Appeals
Please note: information pending for academic year 2026-27, will be updated by February 2026
If you have not been offered a place following an in-year application, the law entitles you to appeal to an Independent Appeal Panel. This panel is completely independent of the school and the Local Authority. In accordance with the 2022 School Admission Appeals Code, the admission authorities and panels have elected for all admissions appeals to be held online.
If you wish to appeal, please complete your appeal online. Please do NOT use ANY other appeal form or send your form to your local authority. It is highly recommended that you download the explanatory booklet about appeals, which you should read before you complete the appeal form.
You should include any evidence or supporting material with your appeal form, and you MUST state the grounds of your appeal when you lodge it. Your appeal form will not be accepted unless you provide the grounds for your appeal. You may appeal to more than one school.
Please note that the online form will ask you to download two utility bills dated the last THREE months. If you do not have access to a scanner, please take two photographs using a mobile phone and upload the photographic files.
If you wish to contact the clerk – email clerk@educationappeals.com
