Dear awsomegr8

It sounds as if it's certainly worth trying an appeal, but I must warn you that the success rate for appeals in Redbridge is well below average!

You need medical evidence of the eczema (and ideally proof that it was a problem at the time of the 11+).

You also need evidence from the school of very high ability. Practice test scores may not be considered evidence - and even if they are, will not be enough.

Hi awsomegr8

I suggest that you read Etienne's Q&As, which cover the process very comprehensively. The link is at the top of the page.

Dear awsomegr8

I assume there are no other extenuating circumstances, so the only other points will be academic.

Follow the link Sally-Anne has given you, and look at the suggestions in B11.
