| Appeals | Parents who wish to appeal against the decision of the Board of Directors to refuse their child a place in the school may apply in writing to Chair of the Board of Directors at the School address. Appeals will be heard by an independent panel. |
| Parents who wish to appeal against the decision of the Governors to refuse their child a place in the school may apply in writing to Chair of Governors at the school address. Appeals will be heard by an independent panel. | |
| If a child is refused admission, parents have a right to appeal to an independent appeals panel. An appeal form can be obtained from the school office. | |
| Waiting lists | The school recognises its duty to admit any pupil who is the subject of a ‘direction’ by the LA or allocated to us according to the Fair Access Protocol and any such pupil will take precedence over the waiting list. |
| A Local Authority waiting list, of those children who sat the test for admission in September, and who did not receive an offer from our school, or a more preferred school, will be held in strict oversubscription criteria order until the end of the first term of the academic year. Each child added to the waiting list will require the list to be ranked again in line with the oversubscription criteria. | |
| The school intends to hold waiting lists for any oversubscribed year group after the 1 September each academic year. Applications for inclusion on a waiting list must be made on the school’s appropriate form and they will be ranked according to our oversubscription criteria as described above. | |
| The school holds waiting lists for oversubscribed years. Waiting lists are routinely reviewed with parents/carers to see if a place is still required. Pupils remain on the waiting list until a parent/carer states that the place is no longer required. Waiting lists applications will be ranked according to the oversubscription criteria as described above. If places become available they are offered to pupils in rank order. |

Ofsted
- This is a good school.
- The Nursery and Reception classes are well managed and children make good progress from very low starting points. Attainment is rising in all subjects in Key Stages 1 and 2 due to the rapid progress of all groups of pupils.
- Teaching is now typically good with some that is outstanding. This is leading to higher achievement.
- Leaders track pupils’ achievement closely and ensure that if they require additional support in order to improve their learning, this is provided as quickly as possible.
- Attendance is above average because pupils enjoy coming to school.
- Pupils behave exceptionally well, feel safe and are very proud of their school.
- Leaders and governors have an accurate view of the school’s strengths and areas to be developed further. This enables them to continue to improve teaching and pupils’ achievement.
- Parents and carers are very positive about the school and praise the staff’s commitment to their children. It is not yet an outstanding school because
- Not enough teaching is outstanding. Work does not always challenge pupils at the right level. This means that occasionally it is too hard for some or too easy for others.
- Work is well marked but not all teachers make sure that pupils do not repeat mistakes, so that the quality of their work improves.
