HOW DO I APPEAL??

[trace2]

ds not got in reception shcool, we want,how do we go about appealing???

Sorry to hear that Trace2,
wasn't there a section on the letter to tell you the appeal process? Or you can ask at the school and ask to go on the waiting list. Alot of people will drop out (hopefully) so he may still get a place.

I am still waiting to hear about DS.

hi kid he is 5th on the list i rang today, and they are sending me a form out, but was wondering if anyone can give me some pointers to help??. i put on form ds is being bullied( yes by a 3.5 year old) didnt think it would happen so young. anyway i have moved him from afternoos to morning but so did they, the school they gave ds is going to that school

Ds was having trouble at his nursery too, it would seem that this particular boy will be leaving shortly

Is the school you are appealing for in your catchement area? I don't know your circumstances but you could try that you wouldn't be able to collect him from a different school due to work commitments. Or if he has any needs that the school would be able to help him with? DD had SALT at school so I could have used that if needed.

Good luck either way, no harm in trying the appeal. Are there any other schools you could try or can't you add other schools now?

(I only put down one school for DS)

both schools are near to me, infact the one they offerd us is closer, but its not as good a school, there is four in our area(we live in a small village), but the other two are very bad children only go there is there parants dont care. i think thats the problem, i would mind him going to the one offerd if the evil chid was not there, i have photos where ds as been bitten time and time again, and have given so many complaints.

I know how you feel, all you can do is make sure it all gets documented at the school.

DS came home from school a while ago with a cut on his throat. It had been caused by this child putting a skipping rope around DS's neck and pulling it. The teacher didn't even tell me about it, I asked her what the mark was and then she told me.

I know its not the answer, but DS is now told that he must hit this child back. We are sick and tired of him coming home with marks and bruises.

yes i have told ds to do the same but he will not hit him back. last week ds shouted as i was leaving stop it i dont want to play with you, you hurt me. so then the boy pushed him so hard he fell on some toys and hurt his back. i went back and told his teachers what i herd then saw, she said, its because the boy wants to play with him, and my ds wont anymore

Thats not on, why should your DS have to play with him if he doesn't want to? They should punish the boy if he hurts others, or reward him when he plays nicely, whichever way they want to do it. I don't think thats a good enough response from them. I wouldn't want to play with someone that hurt me, I'm sure they would feel the same.

When DD's primary allocation letter arrived, there was a little booklet/pamphlet/brochure called 'How to appeal' included with it. If you didn't get anything like that then I'd call the admissions section of your LEA and ask them.

, yes the boys hurts loads of kids, just really picks on ds, they say that the boy is obbsesed about ds, i dont think its very heathy, i think some thing should be done.

NomDePlume, not there was not one in, i have phoned them they are sending out a form to apeal

i had to go to an appeal when we moved into a new area and applied for my two sons to go to a new primary school. the best thing i found was to have a chat with the head teacher. he was really helpful and was at the appeal with us. do some research on the school and at the appeal talk about all the good points that you like about the school and how you feel your child will benefit, and also how the school would benefit from having your son as a pupil.i wrote a list of stuff to take into the appeal.

thank you i have been looking at there good points, too so i will do
