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.
