Whitley Bay High School (25 006 072)
Statement Upheld School admissions 02-Oct-2025
Summary: Mrs F complains about the way the school admissions appeal hearing was conducted following Whitley Bay High School’s decision to refuse admission to her child. 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 arrange training to ensure that panels and clerks are aware of their duty to record decision making in line with the Code.
