SEN Appeal HELP!!!!!!!! ?Etienne ? Sally-Anne

[ysezmo]

Can anyone help ?

We live in Gloucestershire and my DS has a full statement for a physical disability. He needed a pass of 210 for STRS and got 209! There were extenuating circumstances on the day and we have a drs letter. We would like to appeal but have been told because he has a statement we can't! We have spoken to DfE, Local Authority etc and we can't appeal!! They can't find the policy to back it up... they just know... We are so cross! Has anybody ever dealt with this situation before?

As he is SEN he doesn't fall under the same appeals as 'normal' (hate that term) children or children with a medical condition.

Any advice greatly received!

My son has a statement, and when we applied for the exams we met with the SENCO and the Admissions Lady from the school.

She said "If you don't pass you can always appeal"

So I would presume you have been given the wrong information.

Good luck, I feel for you.
