Appeal hearings are held during the working day. They are not held at weekends, in the evening or (usually) during the school holidays<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Generally, we cannot accommodate working patterns and therefore you may need to book time off work. If you know that you cannot attend an appeal on certain dates (for example, you are on holiday) please include this information on the appeal form. If possible, we will try to avoid hearing your appeal on these dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Appeal hearings are usually held remotely via Microsoft Teams. They could also be heard at the Council offices on Topsham Road in Exeter, or at other external venues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will receive email notification of the date, time and arrangements for your hearing no later than 14 calendar days before the hearing. The notification will also include a deadline for the submission of any further evidence you may wish to provide other than that already included with your initial appeal form. We will also provide you with appeals paperwork for the hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Each year, we will publish an appeals timetable for the normal round admissions by 28 February. We are required to set out the appeals timetable for the normal round of admissions into reception and year 7 in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that the normal round appeal deadlines for the 2026\/27 academic year have all passed. Any appeals for the normal round of admissions will be held according to the in-year admission appeals timescales, set out below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For in-year admissions into any academic year group, we will aim to hear these within 30 school days of being received by the appeals office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When are appeals held?
