The Appeal is over!

[in Turmoil]

Well it is over. In fact it went really well! The panel asked probing questions into our extenuating circumstances and were very sympathetic. The LEA rep asked lots of questions and it felt he was trying to help us give the right answers!

After being terrified the panel were lovely and commented on our daughters academic ability, they also seemed very impressed with her reading age.

Well you never can tell but I know whatever the letter says we could not have done more and I don't think the hearing could have gone any better.

Thanks so much to everyone for your support especially Sally Anne who has kept me sane!

Now await the postman!

I echo those thoughts others have written to you In Turmoil, what a horrible experience to have to prepare for. I am glad to hear that you feel it went well.

Well the post came and we didn't get what we wanted. We are dissapointed but feel strongly we couldn't have done anymore!

Luckily we are happy with our alternative and so is our daughter.

Good luck to everyone else.

Thanks for all the messages of support they are much appreciated!

Good luck to you and your child, In Turmoil. At least the waiting is over, and you are very lucky to have an alternative school you are happy with. I wish you the best of luck.
