ADMISSION APPEALS

Any applicant refused a place as part of the random allocation process or as a result of not meeting entry criteria, will be offered a right of appeal to a committee led by the Academy Trust operating the college. The panel will consider the appellant’s case and decide whether to uphold the appeal. Appeals must be submitted within 10 working days of a place being refused and will be heard by the end of the academic year for those not receiving a place as part of random allocation, and by October 2025 for those whose GCSE results do not meet entry criteria.
