Hi My daughter has scored 101 marks from the sloughconsortium grammar school exam 2015.
We have the below point in order to make the appeal.
I have severe chronic health issues which has proper doctor evidence.
Can i appeal on basis that my health issues impacted on my child performance as we have to go to hospitals every week and managing the family was not like normal to other families.

we have lot of challenges regarding health,finance which impacted my daughter score.

Can you please a suggest the procedure and winning chances.

Thanks,
SM

Welcome to Appeals! :)

Very sorry to hear what a difficult time you've had.

However, your academic case will be of much greater importance than extenuating circumstances, and the further away you are from the required score, the stronger your case will need to be.
(And if your academic case is strong, it will raise questions about the extent to which the 11+ was affected.)

Academic evidence, extenuating circumstances, chances of success, etc., are all discussed in the Q&As.

You have a lot of reading to do!

Once you've finished reading, if you still have unanswered questions, do please let us know.
