dorothy i know what you are saying i appealed for charter and during my research i descovered so intresting imformation charter have 180 place if 200 appiled and 180 were sibling all the places would go to the 180 then if there were place left they have other criteria them walking distance. its a wired one i hope it all works out for you roll on march

and i had to appeal for a place ok i won but other people were given a place who lived futher away then me

i am one of the objectors and its not like its affecting anyoneone unless you live on cleve hall or champion hill as i do why shouldnt my child and others go to there local school my child did attend bessemer grange and i live on champion hill est. its 7min from my house to bessemer and 11min from my house to charter if u use wanley rd last yr my child did not get a place at charter but because they do not expect wanley rd they wanted her to do a 35 to 40min journey to charter so thats why we objected so i do live close enough to the school and i agree if you dont live within walking distance to the school not by car on foot then i dont think you should get in to charter no mater what

No charter have never had a catchment area as it states those living closet to the school ie shortest safe walking distance are given a place i live on champion hill estate and last yr my child did not get a palce at charter so i appealed and won in my letter they said that if the schools mapping system had have included wanley road in its measurements then my daughter would have been given a place as i did live closer to the school after this process we thought they would always expect wanley road but they didnt and trust me this is not the first time i have a copy of an appeal that was won in 2000 along with 7 other all on the wanley this has been brought to the attention of the school for 10 yrs and still nothing so we feel we had no chioce but to go higher for all those children living in the community that should go to there local school but didnt get in and had to go to another school. And they wouldnt have ruled in our favour if we didnt have the evidence please read the report posted by one of the eligible parents/objectors as people call us
