ADMISSIONS APPEALS

How to appeal a school place decision

Wiltshire administer admissions appeals on behalf of all maintained schools, including academies. All appeals are held in accordance with the Department for Education’s School Admissions Code and the School Admissions Appeal Code

The purpose of these codes is to ensure that the admissions appeal panel is independent and that appeals are conducted in a fair, transparent and lawful way.

You are legally entitled to appeal against the admission authority’s decision to refuse a place at your preferred school(s). Accepting a place at an alternative school does not affect your child’s place on the reserve list for your preferred school(s), or your right of appeal. Your appeal will be heard by an independent school admission appeals panel. The panel’s decision is binding on all parties: the school, the admission authority and you.
