  • Whitley Bay High School (25 005 949)

    Statement Upheld School admissions 05-Oct-2025

    Summary: Mr D complains about the way the school admissions appeal hearing was conducted following Whitley Bay High School’s decision to refuse his child a place. We find procedural fault because the notes of the hearing are not compliant with the School Admissions Appeal Code. The notes do not demonstrate how the panel made its decision or provide details of the votes cast. The School will arrange a fresh appeal with a different panel and clerk and organise refresher training to ensure that panels and clerks are aware of their duty to record decision making in line with the Code.
