Download or read book School Admission and Exclusion Appeal Panels written by Council on Tribunals (Great Britain) and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special report details the operation of school admission and exclusion appeal panels in England and Wales. Its findings include the restatement of the Council's concerns regarding the lack of independence of admission and exclusion appeal panels, particularly the over-representation of teachers, and the recent decision to increase the number of teachers on exclusion appeal panels. There is also a need for: better guidance and information for parents about the appeals process and access to local representation services; and a clear and uniform policy on training for panel members, particularly panel Chairs. The key recommendations are: exclusion appeals should be heard by the Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal which has legally qualified chairs and a national structure; and admission appeals should be organised on a regional rather than a local basis, as an interim measure pending the establishment of a national appeals system.

Download or read book School Admissions and Accountability written by Feintuck, Mike and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2013-01-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The processes for allocating places at secondary schools in England are perennially controversial. Providing integrated coverage of the policy, practice and outcomes from 1944 to 2012, this book addresses the issues relevant to school admissions arising from three different approaches adopted in this period: planning via local authorities, quasi-market mechanisms, and random allocation. Each approach is assessed on its own terms, but constitutional and legal analysis is also utilised to reflect on the extent to which each meets expectations and values associated with schooling, especially democratic expectations associated with citizenship. Repeated failure to identify and pursue specific values for schooling, and hence admissions, can be found to underlie questions regarding the ‘fairness’ of the process, while also limiting the potential utility of judicial responses to legal actions relating to school admissions. The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach which makes it relevant and accessible to a wide readership in education, social policy and socio-legal studies.

Download or read book Education Law and Diversity written by Neville Harris and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-30 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is fundamentally concerned with realising the potential of every child, but an increasing social diversity presents enormous challenges for the state in terms of its commitment to providing an appropriate education for all. Factors such as ethnicity, disability and material deprivation are associated with inequality, social exclusion and the risk of low educational attainment. Diversity also reflects divergent cultural values and norms. In responding to the challenges posed by diversity, public education authorities are to some extent constrained by individual or group rights. This book examines the nature of these rights, including those under the European Convention on Human Rights, and the ways and contexts in which they operate. Their social effects are also considered. Areas discussed include the curriculum, special educational needs and choice of school. A key theme in the book is the promotion and enforcement of equal access to education, including higher education. Issues of multiculturalism, the social integration of minorities, religion in education and the recognition of children's independent rights are among those that are also discussed. The book centres on England and Wales and covers the evolving legislative framework, including the Education and Inspections Bill 2006, but relevant legal developments in other states are also highlighted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a considerable focus in the last few years on the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998 and its real and potential impact on judges and lawyers. Much has been written on the implications of the new legislation for a variety of areas of law. With the rising level of case-law the emphasis is now turning to the impact of the legislation on specific areas of social life. In this volume the focus is on the practice of human rights and how they are enforced in reality. There is much discussion in the literature of a human rights culture but how precisely is such a culture to be created,and how do we make sense of human rights? In order to address these questions this volume is in two parts. Part I examines general issues surrounding the full and effective implementation of human rights. Part II explores the implications of human rights standards in particular areas in order to test whether a human rights culture has emerged.
