Right of appeal
Parents / Carers who are refused a place for their child have a statutory right of appeal to an independent appeals panel.
For reception or transfer appeals for places in September, you will have at least 20 school days to submit an appeal from the day you received notice that your application was unsuccessful.
The deadlines for submitting an appeal in order to ensure that it is heard before the end of the summer term are:
- Transfer place - 31 March 2025
- Reception place - 2 June 2025
Appeals submitted within the deadlines will be heard within 40 school days of these dates. You can submit an appeal after these dates but it may not be possible to hear your case until after the summer holiday. Then it will be considered after the panel has already heard any appeals which were submitted within deadline.
Where possible appeals arising from late applications will be heard within 40 school days of this deadline or within 30 school days of the appeal being lodged.
Appeals submitted after the deadline will be heard within 40 school days of receipt where possible.
Please contact Newcastle City Council’s School Appeals Team for information (phone 0191 277 7427 or email schoolappeals@newcastle.gov.uk).
