Admissions Appeals
The Admissions Appeals process for all Equals Trust schools engages Nottinghamshire County Council’s Independent Appeals Panel. None of the members who sit on the panels have any connection to Equals Trust schools.
The Admissions Appeals process is free to parents/carers, as the cost is paid by the school.
Please find below, information regarding the appeals process.
