Year 7 Appeals – September 2013
Where the Governors are unable to offer a place at the Academy because it is oversubscribed, parents/guardians have the right to appeal against the decision to an independent panel.
You can request an appeal form from the Clerk to the Governors by phoning 01254 604176, stating clearly the child's name, address and telephone number. Alternatively, a form may also be collected from the Academy during school hours.
We must receive your completed appeal form by Friday 30th March 2013. Failure to appeal by this date may result in your appeal not being heard.
Parents will then be invited to submit their case at an appeal hearing which will be held on one of the following dates; Wednesday 1st May 2013, Thursday 2nd May 2013 and Friday 3rd May 2013.
Parents/guardians will normally receive 10 days notice of the place and time of the hearing. The outcome of individual appeals will not be determined until all the appeals have been heard, after which the Clerk to the Appeal Panel will notify the parents/guardians in writing.
