You will need to complete an appeal form which you will need to email back to us by no later than the middle of May. Simply contact us for a copy of this.
What happens next?
You will be invited to an appeal hearing in June or July 2025. We will conduct the hearing:
- By video call using Microsoft Teams,
- By phone, or
- Using written submissions
We will tell you how and when your appeal will be heard at least 10 school days before the hearing takes place.
You can find out how to complain to the Local Government Ombudsman here.
In-year transfers
If you join another school, but wish to transfer to us at a later date, you will need to complete an ‘in-year’ transfer application form and return this to Norfolk County Council.
You can find out more about this process on our dedicated in-year transfer page.
