Head Teachers support?
Would like to know if anyone has made an appeal in Trafford, what sort of support they have had from their child's Head Teacher. My childs Headteacher has said that my child is border line and should I appeal the school would contact her and she would have to give her opinion as borderline. Do you think I would be wasting my time appealing? Has anyone experience of this in Trafford? Desparately seeking help!!
non qualification
Dont mean to sound pesimistic but in the last few years its very rare to appeal and suceed for non qualification
The schools will be setting a prescedence if they allowed non -qualification students into the school.
A friend whos a teacher at a Trafford said its virtually unheard off in his view

We won a non qual appeal last year for UGS. Didn't get in on oversubsciption but I know of one girl at least year who got UGS on non qual and one at Loreto with ten marks off. Also on on this site for Alty Boys and I know of one other as well. So thats four last year and I don't live in Trafford.
So not necessarily true, don't let it put you off.

I think this goes to show that appeals are there for a reason and there are sometimes valid reasons why children do not perform on the day.
It would of course be much easier for Schools and Local Authorities if there was no such right of appeal, but there is, for good reason and no one should be put off or discouraged from appealing, no matter what a particular school/authority has to say.
