Appeals

In-Year appeals

In-Year appeals are for children transferring between schools mid-year.

Before you can make an appeal you must first have applied to the academy for a place. Details of how to apply can be found on our Admissions page under the heading In-year admissions. Once you have received a letter advising you that a place cannot be offered, you can then proceed to make an appeal for the academy if you wish to.

You can make a formal appeal to an independent appeal panel, for any school that you have applied for where admission has been refused. This is a legal process and places are not ‘reserved’ for appeal panels to offer.

In-year appeals are usually heard within 30 school days of receipt of the appeal form.
