......having been to the appeal this morning.

School offered no evidence of larger classes or more classes in year caused reduced GCSE results. They may do, you may think they do. But they offered nothing.

Also according to the presenting office for the school only 27 appeals were upheld last year. I was told it was 33 by KCC when I called.
Presenting office did agree that they had empty classroom and free teachers.
Gave the view that they certainly could take on another class this year. Even the Panel pushed her on this with several questions.

Whoever said appeals are not the same is correct.
This one lasted 45 minutes and they went thru everything.... Unlike the Skinners one on Monday - 12 minutes all done.,

What I didnt know was that the panel do not know your score. As this has no effect on the decision.

well I am glad it went well for your second appeal. At least it seems a thorough one. Good luck with the waiting and when do you get to hear whether it was upheld or not?
