School admissions appeals process

​How to appeal 

If you’ve made a request for a school admission and you’ve had that request denied, you have the right to appeal.

You can request an appeal by emailing education@gov.je or in writing to the Education Department.

What happens next

If a hearing is necessary it will be held by an appeals panel.

The appeals panel will be made up of:

  • a senior member of the department who hasn’t been involved in the case
  • either the Minister or Assistant Minister for Education
  • an independent member of high standing in the community​

The decision of the appeals panel is final and you can’t request a further appeal.

However, if you feel you’ve not had a fair hearing, you may complain to the States of Jersey Complaints Board. 

​It’s up to the board whether or not they accept the case and hold a hearing or not.
