Admissions Appeals

If you are refused a place at your preferred school the letter from North Somerset will explain why, and you will be given the right to appeal. You should read the North Somerset Appeals Guidance available on the following website: North Somerset Council - School appeals

Moving schools (in year transfers)

If you are looking to change your child's school, we strongly urge you to check with North Somerset Admissions about school place availability before you commit to moving to or within North Somerset. Certain areas and year groups have very limited or no spaces available. The nearest school with a vacancy may be a far distance from where you plan to live.

There is no guarantee that siblings will be offered a place at the same school, a school in the same area, or at schools in the same direction. All admissions, including in year transfers are managed by North Somerset admissions officers.
