Lost Appeal
Posted: Fri Aug 12, 2016 11:27 am
I'd also like some advice please.
My eldest daughter passed the 12+ but her preferred GS (AHS) is full so we went to the IAP with our appeal centred on the long and difficult journey to her current school. Anyway, we lost the appeal because although the IAP agreed that she has a challenging transport issue (bus journey time of up to 2:20 each way) they stated that "it appears that she is happily placed at her present school".
Following advice on this forum about appeals I was not negative about her current school and based the appeal purely on the transport issue - which they accepted.
Does anyone have any advice as to what to do next?
