Top Tips- Once the appeal deadline has passed, you will start to receive notifications for your appeal hearing by email or letter through the post. Once you start receiving information be sure to check that you have all the right documents sent to you- a copy of YOUR OWN appeal papers, the school's (admission authority's) case, a copy of the appeal hearing procedure and the Panel Members and Clerk info with the date, time and venue if face to face, if remote then joining details for your appeal hearing.

Top Tips - Admission authorities MUST ensure that Independent Panel Members are independent & retain their independence for the duration of the hearings. This means you will be given a fair hearing, have an opportunity to say everything you want to say and be assured that everything you do say will be taken into account when the Panel Members make their decision. They MUST adhere to the principles of natural justice.

Top tip- So most of you who decided to appeal would have received your appeal packs/forms by now whether hard copy or online. It is important that you complete the form and return it before the deadline. Not to worry about collating evidence or writing your appeal statement. In the section on the form that asks for your reasons for appealing, just put a sentence giving your basic reasons and then say "further information to follow in due course"

Top Tips - Once you have decided to appeal and submitted your appeal form in advance of the deadline or are planning to do so shortly, you can start collating your evidence, school letters/reports, your own statement, medical evidence (if needed), attendance records, achievements etc. These evidences would depend on your reasons for appealing and the school you are appealing for e.g. Grammar School with entry exam would require proof of academic abilities, medical grounds for appealing would require supporting medical evidence e.g. GP letters, appointment letters etc. (try and ensure that any medical evidence is dated within 6 months)

Top Tips - If you unhappy with your child's allocation and you are planning to appeal the decision, first enquire about how to appeal (directly to school or via local authority), then complete an appeals form (hard copy or online) and submit it as soon as possible (find out about the deadline date). Then enquire about placing your child on the waiting list for the school you are appealing to. Don't panic, you have lots of time.
