We've got to appeal to get DD2 into our preferred school, and I hope I've put together a good case which I know I have to submit before the end of the month.
But I'm confused as to how the hearing works; it says it takes two stages, firstly whether the admission arrangements were correctly applied and then if they have been, whether the detriment to your child of not going to that school would be greater than the prejudice to the other children.
Have I understood this correctly? And if so, are the two parts considered separately? So, if part of my appeal is that I feel we should have been offered a place first time round, will they just consider it and then (hopefully) offer us a place - or is the two part thing misleading and it's all one appeal meeting?
Sorry
