Let's share ideas on how to appeal successfully.
Open forum - but no school names/identifiers please.
For parents that are facing this this year - how are you doing? What questions do you have?
Any parents that have been through the process previously are most welcome to share what works.
I put down two schools with a solid reputation and was offered one that is going through special measures with OFSTED and has had to merge with another school to stay open! I knew competition for the first two schools would be tough and we are on the border as far as travelling distance goes. We were prepared to travel for a good education.
I have a strong education philosophy (being a teacher myself) but if I am strictly honest the two schools chosen are personal preference based on quality standards and where I see my son fitting in. Do I need to come up with more water-tight reasons for my appeal paperwork...?
Over to you...
