Hi
First time posting from a very stressed out parent
Out daughter was unable to gain a place at our local village church school.
The reason that she did not get it is that we only attended our church ( not the school church but a Catholic Church ) only once a month over the last year or so. To gain a place in that category we would have had to attend twice a month.
We have attended church all out lives and only over the last few years because of the difficulties out daughter has faced (difficult birth and knock on effects to her generally) attending church has been difficult and stressful.
We did not put all the issues on the application form as we didn't want to drag it all up ( feel stupid now but is has been quote emotional)
So bottom line is had we put fortnightly on the form she would have got in as all others in that category were given a place. We were truthful as it was a reflection of how things have been over the last few years that we have only attended monthly, but we have a family history of attending church weekly/fortnightly
What is the best way to appeal this ?
