The Roman Catholic schools governing body will be responsible for deciding who gets places and then pass that information onto us. Roman Catholic schools will be sharing information with us to try and make sure you get one of the schools you prefer. If there are two Roman Catholic schools that can offer you a place, we will give you the school which you have put as a higher preference. We will write to you on 14 April 2009 to let you know which school your child has been given a place at. If you are unsuccessful, you do have the right to appeal against the decision. If you want to appeal, you should write to the Chair of Governors saying why you do not agree with the decision and send your letter to the school.
You can get a booklet explaining your rights and the appeal procedure from School Admissions by phoning (01642) 526605. Or view it online at www.stockton.gov.uk/schooladmissions
Please note: The governing body may want some more information from you (for example baptismal certificate for your child) before any decisions are made. |
