If a family is refused a place
In 2026, families in Stockton-on-Tees lodged 55 appeals about a school place.
38 of them were heard by a panel and 12 succeeded, which is about 32 in every 100 heard.
The other 17 did not reach a panel. Most appeals that do not are withdrawn because a place comes up first.
This is a record of decisions already made. A panel hears one case at a time and decides it on what that family sets out, so these figures do not indicate what would happen in any particular appeal.
