Wiltshire Appeal - am I alone???

Post by wilton »

So frustrating that there is so much good info on this site and I have only just found it...appeal is tomorrow!

Well as there are no others writing about Wiltshire I will update with the outcome and full details as requested in the sticky to help any others this year or in the future.

Good luck to anyone else attending appeals...talk about stress!!

Don't be put off by that - sound pretty standard to me!
Reading the advice on here just concentrate tomorrow on why your child needs that school not why you prefer/want it.

You didn't mention if it is academic appeal aswell or just oversubscription.

Update us on how it went. Just think this time tomorrow you will have done your best for your child and hopefully not too long to wait then.

hi Bizziebee, I think it went ok but do think they are just going through the motions because legally they have to. They will phone all appellants over the weekend with a yes or no. I will PM you more details! Good luck for tomorrow :)

Seems like an eternity to wait. From Mondays grouped appeal , the panel seemed v approachable I thought. Can I ask if you were appealing for oversubscription or non selective? Really can't wait for it all to be over! Will post after ours tomorrow. :wink:
