Appeals
Parents have a statutory right of appeal to the Admissions Authority (Grace Schools) against the refusal of a place at the academy. This applies to all year groups currently open.
If your child’s application for a place at AWCA is unsuccessful, you will be notified in writing why admission was refused and given information about the process for hearing appeals, including the deadline for lodging an appeal.
Cambridgeshire County Council will notify the parent of the above. The Appeal Panel will be independent of the academy. The arrangements for appeals will be in line with the Appeals Code. The determination of the Appeal Panel will be made in accordance with the Code and will be binding on all parties.
Timeline
- Appeals deadline – 13 April 2027
- Appeals will be heard between 5 May and 16 June 2027 (40 school days from deadline)
