How can I appeal?
“Appeals for ‘in-year’ school admission requests are normally held within 30 school days of the date your appeal is received. You will be notified of the date of your appeal no later than ten school days before the appeal is due to take place.
Appeals for entry into Reception or Year 7 to start primary or secondary school for the first time – what are called ‘normal’ admission requests – are usually held in the summer term after parents / carers have been notified of the refusal of a school place, commonly in June and July.
Starting school in September 2025
For applications to start a primary school for the first time in September 2025, appeal forms should be submitted by the parent / carers by 23 May 2025 and appeals are planned to be held in June and July 2025.
