In-Year Admissions

If you would like your child to join Kemnal Technology College outside the normal point of entry for the school in Year 7, you should complete an In Year Admission Form and return to us.

This can be emailed to admin@kemnal-tkat.org or, if you would prefer a paper copy of the form, please contact the school office on 0208 300 7112.

Application outcomes will be confirmed in writing no later than 15 school days from receipt of the application. Pease note that applications received during the school holidays will be processed as soon as the school re-opens.

If the number of applications for the school, for any year group, is more than the number of places available, the oversubscription criteria (as per our Admissions Policy) will be applied. The same oversubscription criteria will apply if the school is in a position to offer a place from the Waiting List.

In the event that your application is unsuccessful and you would like to pursue an appeal, please refer to the Kemnal Technology College Appeals Process below.

Appeals

 Any child not offered a place has the statutory right of appeal to an Independent Appeal Panel.

The Independent Appeal Panel will be determined by the Governing Body on an annual basis and will, usually, consist of two lay members and one person from the community, independent of the School. The decision of the Independent Appeal Panel will be binding on the Governors and the parents. Full details of the Appeals process are available from the Clerk to the Independent Appeal Panel.

Parents wishing to make an appeal should complete an Appeal Form. This can be emailed to admin@kemnal-tkat.org or, if you would prefer a paper copy of the form, please contact the school office on 0208 300 7112. 

Your appeal request should be submitted in writing stating your reasons for your request and any additional information/documentation/appendices should be submitted five days before the Hearing to allow time for it to be copied and distributed to all the interested parties. At least 10 working days before your appeal, unless you choose to waive this right, you will be sent detailed information regarding the process and also the date and names of the independent panel members who will hear the appeal.
