School appeal procedural question

[SuperSue77]

Our appeal is one of 20 odd being heard over 3 days. We’re the middle day and have been told stage 1 will be in the morning and our individual hearing in the afternoon. Do you think that means they will have three stage 1 hearings, one each morning for all the parents being heard on that day? I wondered whether the parents across all 3 days might be invited to the stage 1 on the middle day, but presumably they can’t hear stage 2 hearings on the first day without having heard the school case beforehand? I just wondered if anyone was familiar with this way of running it? TIA.

thank you feel free to drop me a PM if you need any help I had a page of questions xxx

@SadRach76 AMAZING!!!
So many are winning, this is fantastic!
I started to receive emails from the school the day after I found out, and gosh there are lots!
The school know who's been successful long before we do, so they're well prepared to bombard us lol! 😂

I think it is fair to say that parents who come here for advice in preparing their appeal are more likely to win than those who don't.

@prh47bridge
I think the advice you give it invaluable.
Thank you so much.

We had ours a few weeks ago. The schools case was on the Monday and all the parents went to it. The individual cases were then heard Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday morning

@SadRach76 congratulations on winning your appeal. On what grounds did you appeal if you don't mind me asking?

@prh47bridge I agree and I know initially I had a really weak case which I did and I was one of the lucky ones who didn't have to go onto stage 2 and fight as things could have been a lot different.
Helped me a lot reading and getting tips from people like yourself on here so thanks for that.
