Hi, wondered if anyone could help me please regarding appeals, I live within the catchment of my local school, my older daughter went to the school until we decided to emigrate but its not worked out so we are coming home and my 8 year old has been told there are no places available at her local junior school which my older daughter attended. My 8 year old went to the infants just that we moved before starting the juniors. We are devastared as she attended the infancts and we are still in the catchment as we rented our house out and Trafford have told me I have to appeal but there are 31 in each Year 4 class, my daughter will be devastated if we cant get her in as the poor child has been in two new schools within 6 months in Australia and we are desparately trying to get her settled and find stability again. The thought of sending her to another completely new school with no friends is heartbreaking. How does the appeal system work and do you think we have a case. Anyone that could help please Id be very grateful and how long does an appeal take, all new to me and very upsetting. Thank you.
