We are expert Education Law Solicitors specialising in School Admission Appeals

If your child is refused a place at your chosen school it can feel like the end of the world. It is a traumatic experience for you and your child.

We can help you with your child’s school admission appeal.

The prospect of a school admission appeal is daunting. Where do you start? What are the right things to say? More importantly, what are the wrong things? Learning how to put your case forward is the key to a successful appeal.

Securing a place at the right school can change your child's life. Understanding government education department and school rules for the school entrance admission process, school admission appeal code and hearing is not easy. When you add to that understanding the issues on which the school appeals panel really base their decisions, the prospect can be very confusing.

My School Appeal can help you launch the best possible school admission appeal.
