Trafford non-qualification appeal procedure
Does anyone know the timeframes for appeals in Trafford based on non-qualification, in particular for Urmston and Stretford? We're also trying to find out if there's an actual hearing for these, or if it's all done by letter/paper submission. We're trying to do a bit of forward planning for the 11 Plus in October 2012 for admission in September 2013 because we're looking to book a holiday after the stress of the exams. Hopefully we won't need this info, but we want to be prepared!
Re: Trafford non-qualification appeal procedure
I assume we're talking about statutory appeals. According to the new Code of Practice:
If the information isn't there, ring them up and enquire. (Best not to talk about 'non-qualification' - from their point of view it's just an 'appeal'.)
- which is not to say that they've got round to it yet!2.2 Admission authorities must publish their appeals timetable on their website by 28 February each year.
If the information isn't there, ring them up and enquire. (Best not to talk about 'non-qualification' - from their point of view it's just an 'appeal'.)
If it's a statutory appeal, you must be invited to attend. (The appeal can go ahead in your absence on the basis of your written case, but you could be seriously disadvantaged if you don't attend.).... or if it's all done by letter/paper submission
