The school admissions board contacted us this morning to confirm that they have overturned their initial decision and offered Mia a place at Alder. This reversal confirms the information we presented regarding the local intake discrepancies. My focus now shifts to ensuring the enrollment paperwork is processed correctly so she …

The point of this petition is to show that she is a valued member of her class and that it is to the schools detriment not to offer her a place.

I don't know Mia but what I do know is, Its so awful not to go to high school with your friends. I was the only one in my primary who went to Longdendale and had to start off on my own whilst everyone else already had their friends. Let Mia join her friends! X
This was a very similar situation with Alder that we were in with my daughter a few years ago. We managed to get her in on appeal, but they made us jump through hoops. Keep at it and don’t give up hope.
So important to be happy and secure at school . At a time when mental health is at the forefront no child should feel they have been rejected.
This little girl should be able to stay with her friends. She’s the only one on her road not to be offered the feeder school for Dowson and she is in the catchment area
This child must feel devastated and feel so upset to know all her class mate's got a place and not her, Not getting a place at her desired school will have a long-term effect on this child, please reconsider for the child sake..
Good Luck, you are very special!
Good luck

What a ridiculous scenario this is. How can any 'board' or whatever they call it exclude a young girl in this way? My own daughter will be in a similar situation next year and I could not begin to imagine how upset she would be if the same thing happened to her. I sincerely hope common sense prevails and this young lady gets her wish.
