Cathchment..
Hi, We live right in the middle of AGS and RLS...when we go to appeal should I mention that as it may mean we would have more schools that could be looked at...if you understand what I mean..?
The kids at the moment queue up on both sides of the road to go to Buckingham or Aylesbury..

Hi Phil
I'm not entirely clear on what you mean, but that doesn't matter anyway, because the prospective school is barely ever relevant at an appeal against non-qualification. This appeal is all about whether your child is suited to any GS, not a specific one.
There are a very few situations where it might just be "worth a mention" - for example if a sibling already attends the GS. Generally speaking though, it is a point best avoided - a red herring that could confuse your case.

Hi Phil
That is an over-subscription criterion, and very definitely not relevant for an appeal against non-qualification.
NQ panels have no interest in the numbers game at all - they can allow every single appeal if they believe that they are all deserving cases.
It is only after March 2nd that they take off their "NQ hats", and put their "Transfer Appeal hats" on, and start to consider numbers.
