Hi
I wondered if anyone out there has some hot tips for my appeal for my son to attend a church school starting in September 2014.
Brief story:
He has been on their waiting list since 2011 and year 3 they have 4 more spaces become available. He slipped to 5th on the list so has missed out. His younger sister attends the school and so life is pretty hard with the school runs and I have a third child who will start school in Sept 2015 so not sure what school to choose!!!
BUT
The school that I am trying to get my son into has just made a space for one extra child in year 2 as from April 2014 (the child I believe is adopted and presume is one of the top 4 on the waiting list) so come September the school will be back to normal with numbers.
I receveived their refusal letter today for my son not making it to Year 3 and in the letter it stated reasons why they can't make space....like, noise, resources, staffing and the size of the class room. But I feel that they have managed to make space without it effecting the above issues.
Do you think I could appeal on this as I have read somewhere that appealing on just a sibling and waiting list issues would not be enough.
Please, I hope someone can help....I am desperate!!!
Thanks
