My child's application has been refused

If your child is refused a place at your preferred school you have the right of appeal.  

To appeal you must have submitted an application and received a written refusal.

Families experiencing difficulties in obtaining a local school place are advised to email admissions@staffordshire.gov.uk for assistance. It is important to note that transport will only be provided in line with the county council’s transport policy and usually is only provided if your child is attending “the nearest school with vacancies” – if you are unable to obtain a place at a local school and wish to enquire about vacancies at alternative school or your eligibility for home to school transport please email admissions@staffordshire.gov.uk
