School Admission Appeals
You have the right under the school standards and framework act 1998 (as amended by the education act 2002) to appeal to an independent appeal panel if your child has not been allocated a place at your preferred school(s). There is no right of appeal in respect of applications for nursery schools or classes.
If your child has not been offered a place at the school you prefer you can appeal to an independent appeal panel.
School places in Ealing are very limited and places are allocated according to admissions criteria. We strongly recommend if you have been offered a place at an alternative school, that you accept the place that you have been offered whilst you await the outcome of your appeal.
In Ealing and across London it is not exceptional for siblings to attend different schools.
Ealing Council organises appeals for all community schools in the borough.
More information regarding School Admission Appeals can be found here.
