Should I tell the SEND Tribunal about this? Yes. Whenever an appeal is about a child or young person’s transfer to a new phase of education, it is essential that you say this very clearly on the appeal form and in the email when the appeal form is submitted (if you are using the paper version). The SEND Tribunal is prioritising section I only phase transfer appeals and has some reserved hearing date slots for these types of appeals. Even if your appeal involves sections B and F as well as I, you should still tell the SEND Tribunal this is a phase transfer appeal. Manage Cookie Preferences
