Hi All
This is my first post, so apologies if I was supposed to intro myself somewhere else first!
I'm hoping that someone out there can help us. Our appeal was rejected for our daughter's preferred secondary school. She has special needs, and is on the special needs register, but does not have an SEN. The school we appealed for is massively oversubscribed which was the reason for us not being successful. They also said that our daughter's needs can be met at our allocated school (we disagree), but half of them can be.
Since the appeal we have discovered that the chairman on the appeal panel is also a governor at our allocated school. We know that nobody connected with the school we are appealing for is allowed to sit on the panel, but is someone connected to the allocated school allowed to sit? I'm having trouble finding the answer.
Thanks so much for any replies, they will be so welcome.
