Hi

I would like to know if any parents are appealing for this school?
If so, do you know if the school is overscribed?

Are appeals for this school ever successful?

Many Thanks

I could not find any topic for this redbridge area school.

It would seem there are 1000 applications for places at this school, so yes it is oversubscribed.

In 2006 3 appeals were heard and 1 was upheld. Not sure why there were so few appeals.

The appeals deadline is March 17th, so has already passed.

Im surprised to hear that only 1 was upheld.

I have already received the appeals pack and was thinking about how many appeals have been successful.

Kind regards

The school we are appealing for upheld only 2 of the 46 it heard last year, so your odds are better!

Good luck.

Parmiters - the most oversubscribed school in Herts. 1300 applications for 195 places, only 48 of those are selected on academic, the rest is siblings, music and a few on distance.
