Appeals Information
The trust board will set and publish a timetable for organising and hearing appeals which:
Gives appellants at least 20 school days from the date of the refusal letter to prepare and lodge a written appeal.
Ensures that appellants receive at least 10 school days' notice of the appeal hearing date.
Sets reasonable deadlines for the submission of additional evidence and for papers to be sent to all parties.
Aims to send decision letters within 5 school days of the hearing, where possible.
Appeals lodged on time will be heard within the following timescales:
For applications made in the normal admissions round, within 40 school days of the deadline for lodging appeals.
For late applications, within 40 school days of the deadline for lodging appeals where possible, or within 30 school days of the appeal being lodged.
For in-year admissions, within 30 school days of the appeal being lodged.

Faithful Five
We encourage all of our children to have a "Fathful Five." This would be 5 adults in school that they would trust to share concerns with whether they be concerns from home or concerns from school
Attendance
Children being in school, everyday, ready and on time is vital to their progress and social well-being in school.
Our attendance page has a range of information to help you - click here to visit it!
Sometimes it can be hard for parents to know whether their child is too ill to come to school.

We remind the children of how to keep themselves safem including outside of school. This includes during schoo holidays when staff are not available to speak with the children when they have concerns
