Admission appeals
How to appeal if your child's school admission application has been refused
If your application for a school place is refused, you can submit an appeal.
The admission authority for the school you applied to will send you a written response, which will include:
- the reasons your application has been refused
- how to submit an appeal
- the deadline for submitting your appeal
You can find out more about the appeals process in the School Admissions Code and Appeals Code on GOV.UK.
