You can appeal within 15 school days of the receipt of the notice of your child's permanent exclusion from school. You must inform the local education authority in writing of your intention to appeal and the reasons for your appeal.
Arrangements will be put in place to set up a review panel to hear your appeal. The review panel must meet within 15 school days of receipt of the parent's appeal.
If you require any further information on the appeals process, please email: edu.welfare@afc.org.uk.
