Heads recommendation sheets

Post by Justine »

Here are my son's head teachers recommendations.
1:1 12/10
1:2 3/2
1:3 0/0
2:1 12/5
2:2 12/7
3:1 3/1

Can you tell me if his standing at 1:1 is going to impress the panel???

Many thanks

Justine

Yes, the "1s" look quite good.

That's good news, thank you very much.
Just heard today that the other predicted 1:1 has been successful, does that help us and should we let the board know this or will they already know?

With so many appeals taking place, and different panels every day, the chances of anyone on your panel knowing the result of someone else's appeal is almost zero!

I suggest you tell them that the 1:1s now stand at 11 out of 12, as it sounds good!

(It will, however, be uncorroborated evidence!)

Ok, thank you.

The point of whether they knew or not was me wondering if they held information on previous successful appeals by the school not the individual, thereby making it corroborated as opposed to uncorroborated. Sorry for any confusion.

I do appreciate the time spent to answer every query I and others have and congratulate all those who are involved and committed to this site. Thank you once again. :lol:

Dear Justine

There's just a very remote chance someone on the panel might have heard the other appeal and would recall that it was one of the two 1:1s at the school in question.

Just to be clear, no one at the hearing will have an up-to-date tally of a particular school's appeal results.

Thank you for your very kind words. Glad to be of some help at such a stressful time.

Good luck with your appeal.
