What Matters when choosing a sixth form 2022

 

How to appeal:

If you have not been offered a place at the sixth form, the law entitles you to appeal against that decision to an Independent Appeal Panel. This panel is completely independent of the admission authority (Inspiration Trust) and the Local Authority. All appeals will be heard online which has the advantage that your appeal can be heard from your home or place of work.

If you wish to appeal, please use this link to complete your appeal online. Please do NOT use ANY other appeal form. It is suggested that you download the explanatory booklet about appeals which you should read before you complete the appeal form – Booklet Link .

You should include any evidence or supporting material with your appeal form and you MUST give the grounds for your appeal at the time you lodge your appeal form. Your appeal form will not be accepted unless you state the grounds for your appeal. 

Any letters or reports that you wish the panel to see should be uploaded at this time. You are asked to bear in mind that if you later send additional information, the closing date is 5 working days before the hearing. All appointed panels have agreed NOT to take any late letters or reports after the 5 working day deadline. This will be strictly enforced.

Full details about the hearing will be sent to you with your invitation to the hearing.

If you wish to contact the clerk – email: clerk@educationappeals.com

Timetable for appeals for the 6th form is as follows:

Last day for Lodging appeals

4pm on Thursday 28 August 2025 to guarantee that your appeal will be heard within the first weeks of September. You MUST state the reasons for your appeal on the online form and supply any documentary evidence at this stage e.g. a copy of your result sheet.

Please note the timetable is very short to enable those appellants who win appeals to start as early into the school year as possible.
