hi just to let you all no we won our appeal today we didnt even have to say anything they just asked the school reps lots of questions then told everyone to go out of the room after a few mins we went back in to be told the appeal was upheld and my dd could be admitted into the school x

Excellent news. Well done. I imagine the panel weren't too impressed by the LA's inability to decide what was the correct distance to your home.
