Hi
anyone have experience in school appeal - primary level
I moved to a new area and gave one of my school as preference but did not get it.
I have appealed now.
wanted to know what are chances that appeal gets successful etc
or what factors makes appeal more stronger .
if we are not happy with anything in the school , can we raise in appeal ??
some people say u can’t say against a school as they don’t like it
they take all schools as equal.
my son has complex medical issues
I am not satisfied with care etc
also I live in the same street where the school is and I am not comfortable for the surrounding people to know about his condition as he gets bullied then
how Can I mention this in my appeal

Agreed with the above posters, you need to start reading up and getting a lot more knowledge.

how is the current school not meeting his needs, have you worked / spoken to them? If he needs 1:1 support he needs an EHCP not an IHCP. Getting an EHCP is a long process which includes lots of professional reports (ed psych, medical, school).

why have you not visited the school you want to appeal for? They also may not meet his needs.

As others have posted, request an EHCNA. 1:1 without an EHCP does sometimes happen for DD with complex medical needs when the child has separate funding via health, but I presume that isn’t the case here otherwise you would have mentioned it.
