School admissions and appeals have grown increasingly complex and demanding in recent years. To effectively address these challenges, it is essential for schools to have a thorough understanding of their responsibilities and to implement procedures that fully comply with current regulations. To support schools, I have set up the “Understanding School Admissions and Appeals Compliance” training session to empower participants and their organizations with the information and skills necessary to ensure compliance with the School Admission and Appeal Codes. The training session is designed for school staff responsible for managing or overseeing the admissions and appeals processes.
The aim of the session is for participants to leave with the knowledge to implement effective admissions policies, handle appeals with confidence and address common challenges using proven methods.
